James Honeyben is a rugby union coach and former English professional rugby player.
He has been a member of the Wasps Academy since 2002, has worked his way up within Wasps and was named as part of the senior squad starting in the 09/10 season.
Honeyben has been a familiar face, despite a few injuries, one to his groin in 2004/05, the same season he earned an U19 cap for England.
In the 2005/06 season, Honeyben made his Premiership debut against Sale in February as well as starting 13 out of 16 matches for the A team. Making his second start for the senior side, Honeyben ran out against Worcester in March, and gained a place on the pitch in the final game of the season against Gloucester.
The following season saw Honeyben as a member of the winning A League side with 10 appearances, but a shoulder injury held him back for a large part of the season. He recovered just in time for the start of the 07/08 season and was a part of the Middlesex 7s side. Unfortunately injury forced Honeyben off the pitch and he underwent surgery on his knee ligaments, but soon returned to training.
Honeyben had a successful 2008/9 season with the A side, although they couldn't claim the A League title for a third season, and is sure to prove his worth in the Premiership this season with the 1XV side.
James has since played for Exeter Chiefs and retired from playing to become a full time coach with Wasps Academy.
