Jamie Eames joined Norwich Cty's academy from Cambridge City's youth team in the spring of 2005. Jamie, a right winger, had been a regular in Cambridge City's U16 side since signing from Colney Heath FC after Jez George spotted him playing for Herts u16s v Suffolk. He scored five goals in the Eastern Junior Alliance campaign, but, more significantly perhaps, two in a friendly against the Norwich Player Development Centre! He also made four appearances for the reserves including one start, against Lowestoft Town.He was offered and accepted a two year scholarship at Norwich following a three month period during which he has played against the likes of Ipswich Town, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Millwall for their u16s and u18s.

Once again there are mixed emotions for Cambridge City's Academy Director Jez George who said, "To gain a scholarship as an under 16 player at a club of the stature of Norwich City is a remarkable achievement. Jamie has come a long way in a short space of time, having signed for us from Colney Heath only last October. Whilst we are disappointed that a player of Jamie's talent and natural ability will not be joining our Academy, everyone connected with Cambridge City is really pleased for him and we wish Jamie every success at Norwich City. We will follow his progress with interest and are proud that Cambridge City played a part in his development."

Jamie joined Stevenage, initially on trial, in May 2007 as he had not been offered a professional contract with the Canaries.

Jamie was loaned to Wivenhoe Town in January 2008

Released by Stevenage in the summer of 2008, Jamie played for St Albans in their July 2008 friendlies against Barnet and Tottenham. The following month he signed for Colney Heath in the Spartan South Midlands League
