I am from Oldham, which is in the Greater Manchester area in the great county of Lancashire. from the young age of 4 I have loved being involved in sports especially football and most certainly cricket. I developed the love of playing football after following in the footsteps of my dad but cricket was all about me, living next to a cricket club (Royton Cricket Club) I just loved popping my head round the gates itching to get involved. I gave up on the football front not just because of injury but my love for cricket had grown stronger and stronger. I was then fortunate enough to represent my District for cricket and then this also allowed further opportunities and most importantly representing my county in national tournaments and I feel like this was a massive achievement for me. From the success of gaining 8 GCSE’s at North Chadderton School, I then moved to Oldham college doing BTEC extended sports diploma in sport. I came out of this with a double distinction which In the end I was very pleased with.
Moving forward I then moved to Leeds Beckett University where I am currently at studying BSCH Sports Coaching course whist playing Bucs Cricket and being part of a great cricket club at the Uni. I have always wanted to pursue a career in coaching as well as teaching. by working in schools universities delivering sessions and also being part of the cricket club picking up different ideas this helps me massively as I am someone who strives by working alongside others as well as learning different strategies.
I have many different qualifications and they as follows;
- FA level 1 Qualification
- First Aid Qualification
- Level 1 in coaching cricket
- Level 1 Health and safety at work.
