*Club domestic league appearances and goals

Jamie Hand (born 7 February 1984) is an English former professional footballer and scout. A "tough-tackling, no-nonsense" midfielder,[3] he made around 400 appearances in a 14-year football career and played in the English Football League (First Division and League Two), Scottish Premier League, Isthmian League, Conference (Premier, North and South), Southern League and Northern Premier League.

He began his career at Watford, making his first-team debut in January 2002 and winning the club's Young Player of the Year award in 2002–03. However, he dropped out of the first team in the 2004–05 season and had brief loan spells at Oxford United, Livingston and Peterborough United, before he joined Fisher Athletic in February 2006 to facilitate a loan move to Northampton Town, who he helped to win promotion out of League Two in 2005–06. He joined Chester City in May 2006 before he moved on to Lincoln City in August 2007. He returned to Oxford United before his contract was cancelled by mutual consent in May 2008.

After leaving Lincoln, he embarked on an extensive career in non-League football, firstly joining Ebbsfleet United in August 2008. He then played for Chelmsford City and Woking before signing with Hayes & Yeading United in August 2010, who he would later captain. He joined Luton Town on loan in September 2011 but was fined The Football Association in April 2012 after insulting Luton fans on Twitter. He quit Hayes over a row about club fines the following month. He signed with Mansfield Town in July 2012, who in turn loaned him out to Eastleigh, Hayes & Yeading United and Margate. He joined Stockport County in July 2013 and then had a loan spell at Southport. He signed with Farnborough in December 2014 and later had brief spells in caretaker charge at Northwood and playing at Warrington Town before he became a scout.
