Although his family moved to Banff, Alberta when he was two-years-old, Leacock was born in Wood Green, London. This meant he was eligible to play for the Great Britain national ice hockey team and he was selected to play for them in 1935. However, his inclusion in the team was disallowed due to him not having played three qualifying years as an amateur. This led to his retirement from playing and Leacock became a referee instead. A role he undertook in over two thousand senior games.
