What do you love about Sport?
I love every aspect of sport; both training and competing. I
enjoy pushing myself in order to perform my best and love the buzz you get when
things finally go right and fit into place. I love netball as I love being part
of a team and working with other athletes, I have made some fantasic friends
through sport.
4.
What are your top goals in Sport?
I hope to take to court for Mavericks Youth this season, which would be
a huge achievement for my, particularly after being injured for 4 months, I
hope to be selected for England U19’s and ultimately go on to represent England
at Senior level.
5.
What achievements are you most proud of in your career so far?
Firstly I am proud of my determination not to give up to huge setbacks; I
wasn’t selected for the Regional Academy last season, but, I didn’t give up. I
pushed myself hard and made it into RPA and Mavericks Youth. I am also proud
that I have now been selected for the 1st team at my club team.
6.
What do you think makes a good athlete?
An athlete has to be determined to reach their goal, they cannot give up
when things get tough; experiences like that must motivate them futher. I also
think athletes must be commited and focussed, their sport must come first.
Finally, athletes must be able to listen to any advice that there are given,
otherwise they just won’t improve.
7.
What are you hoping the f4p Sponsorship and sequencing program will bring to
your performance?
After working with Stu for the past year I have been
able to see improvemenets in my performance on court. In particular in my
change of direction and ability to jump further and longer. I hope that working
with Stu this year will enable me to continue to improve my performance
further, in particular my strength and power. This will help me improve of
court to make more interceptions, mark tighter and attack stronger.
