Early life and career

Jake McIntyre was born in Alstonville in northern New South Wales. He was selected for the Australian Schoolboys rugby team in 2011 and 2012.[3] McIntyre joined Queensland club side Sunnybank and his performances in the Queensland Premier Rugby competition led to his selection in the Australia Under-20 team to play at the 2013 World Rugby Under 20 Championship in France and the 2014 World Rugby Under 20 Championship in New Zealand.[3]
