While studying at the University of Cambridge, White played two first-class matches for the university cricket club, both against Yorkshire at Fenner's in 1913 and 1914.[1] In his first match he took what would be his only first-class five wicket haul with figures of 5/75 in Yorkshire's first-innings of the match.[2] He later played a single first-class match for Surrey against Oxford University at The Oval in 1926,[1] though without success.

He died at East Grinstead, Sussex on 6 November 1968.
