Personal Statement

I want to seek out role models that will push me to develop beyond my current skill level, to maximise my abilities in the goals and to make me the best keeper I can be. I have pushed myself this year to be as fit as possible but over the next 12 months I want to improve on that and take my technical ability to the next level. 

I have a very strong work ethic and push myself to work hard. I am diligent and strive to always look for the positive in any situation. My family means everything to me. We are a very close knit unit and lean on each through good times and bad. I will fully involve myself in the spirit of the team. By bringing drive, passion, sportsmanship and heart, I will help unite the team because a team that works together in brotherhood works as one unit. Building a connection with your team helps the team work better together.
