Career
Harris began skating in Blackpool at the age of eleven, in 2000.[1][2] After winning the British junior title in January 2008,[3] he relocated to Coventry.[1]
Harris never competed on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series.[4] He made his senior international debut at the 2009 NRW Trophy, placing 19th. In the 2010–11 season, he stepped onto the British national podium for the first time, taking the bronze medal. He repeated as the bronze medalist in the 2011–12 season, finished fourth in 2012–13, and withdrew in the 2013–14 Olympic season. He landed the triple Axel jump for the first time in 2013.[1]
In the 2014–15 season, Harris competed in three ISU Challenger Series (CS) events, placing 8th at the Lombardia Trophy, fifth at the Ice Challenge, and ninth at the Golden Spin of Zagreb. In late November 2014, he won his first senior national title.[5] Harris was assigned to his first ISU Championship, the European Championships held in January 2015 in Stockholm, Sweden. Ranked 12th in the short program, he earned qualification to the final segment and finished 15th overall.
Harris began the 2015–16 season on the Challenger Series, placing 10th at the 2015 CS Nebelhorn Trophy and 6th at the 2015 CS Ice Challenge, before finishing 4th at the NRW Trophy. In December, he won his second national title. He reached the final segment at two ISU Championships – the 2016 European Championships in Bratislava, where he finished 18th, and the 2016 World Championships in Boston, where he ranked 22nd. He works as a coach in order to cover his expenses.[1]
