Some background information on myself:
I initially started coaching at the age of 15 were I formed a team called West Lane Tigers for young people in my local community to help give them some positive activity. We coached 6-11 year olds. Alongside this, I was training with an Academy before starting college. Whilst at College I completed various coaching courses as my aim was to become a Sports Development Officer. Whilst at College and University I played in goal for various Northern League clubs: Guisborough Town, Peterlee Newtown, Marske United and Thornaby whilst also representing The North Riding FA U18's for 2 years. Since College I have studied a BSc (hons) in Youth Studies, worked with varied amounts of children, young people and families throughout the North of England and completing a Postgrad in Child Adolescent Mental Health (largely focusing on development, MH difficulties/diagnosis, assessing MH and understanding various MH difficulties). Whilst working full time supporting children, young people and families for over 15 years I have also, continuously used my coaching abilities within job posts. The last 7 years I have coached down at Kader FC and the last 2 years Whinney Banks and Eaglescliffe Elementis FC too.
