Jackaman who also featured in the Saints’ successful FA Youth Cup run last season impressed in the regional trials of the competition which attracted over 2,500 entrants.
FootballCV Head Coach Danny Nicholls assessed Jackaman at his Regional Trial.
Nicholls said: “Luke performed well at the trial. He impressed us with his ability and we’re looking forward to having another look at him.
“The standard has been very strong so far, so the winner will need to demonstrate that he has the talent to make it as a professional.”
