STRENGTHS
I am a goal keeper who can play with my feet as well as my hands, which gives me good distribution options. I am fearless when dealing with the ball, quick and nimble when moving around my box and a fierce competitor.
AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT
I would like to improve on my timing when distributing the ball, being able to assess all the options available to me more quickly and accurately. I would also like to improve my resilience in dealing with disappointment, working on the psychological side of football and sport.
Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
Resilient, confident, dynamic, fearless, coachable
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
Last season with Averley U18 we won the Soccer Elite Toups Tournament, playing teams from across the world before beating Crystal Palace in the final 2-0. This was made even more memorable for me because I made a top corner save during the final which I will never forget.
Goals:
To become a professional footballer, or get to the highest level that I can. I would also like to passes on the opportunities I have had in football to future generations of female footballers, through coaching and teaching.
Anything else we should know?
I am left foot dominate but can play happily off both feet. I am quick and agile which means that I can get to balls quickly and my team will pass back to me and trust I can get to and clear the ball well. I am robust in that I take plenty of knock and get back up and carry on.
