Summary

As a previous HeronBridge College first team netball player, I understand and appreciate the importance of this sports and being able to succeed in it as a team. I have been a provincial player since I was 13 years old and believe that having a coach who is still playing the game at a high level is advantageous. I am experienced with developing player skills and fostering winning team culture. Utilising strategic training methods to enhance overall team performance and knowledge of building strong team dynamics and maintaining high levels of player motivation are my strengths.


Secondly, I have a strong passion to teach and empower people. I studied environmental science to make a difference and I believe for me, that lies in encouraging students to do the same. I will be doing my PGSE this year to initiate this.
