Personal History
I have been involved with Wrightchoice since the summer of 2007 when I started volunteering at the Friday Community Night. After completing my Sports Sciences degree at Brunel University, I decided I wanted a career in sport, specifically in football.
After a brief period at Reading Football in the Community I was made aware of a full-time opportunity at Wrightchoice CSA. I was more than happy to grasp the chance to become involved in this organisation.
This organisation is all about offering opportunity to young people, both in a sporting and a holistic life sense. I believe there is no better environment in which to foster my coaching development.
I have a firm belief in the potential of Wrightchoice and am dedicated to helping the charity fulfil its aim of being a sustainable sports organisation long into the future. |
