Fav Footballer: Paul Scholes
Fav Football Team: Man United
Fav Football Drill: The Rondo
Why Do You Enjoy SLD?: “I enjoy SLD because it is an opportunity for me to provide young players with high quality coaching that will hopefully expand their knowledge of the game and help them progress. Reflecting on my own experience as a player in youth football, I did not have any high quality coaching until the age of 19, so I love being able to give the SLD players something that I didn’t have at their age.”
