Personal Overview

I began playing rugby for my local team Oakmedians RFC at the age of 9 under the coaching staff of Neil Bibby, Merrick Gill, and Rhys Fullard. We were consistent in winning matches and tournaments at a very early stage, and at this point, I decided that this is where my future belonged. 

 

Since then, I have devoted my time to playing rugby to the best of abilities at every opportunities that were available to me:-

I was selected for Bath Academy DPP from U14 to Colts.

I was selected to represent Dorset and Wiltshire U15, and I am still playing for them to the present day.

I have played, trained and represented Welsh Exiles until the age of 18.

 

I am also a very competent and highly sort after player within the 7's game. Wuth appearances Including, but not limited to Grenada 7s a multinational tournament hosted in the named country.

Teams I'm associated with:-

Nomads

Winsocks

Saints

FRN

 

I am a very dedicated, committed, and passionate rugby player who is looking for an opportunity to show my abilities and progress my rugby to the highest level. Due to my versatility, I am able to play several positions to an extremely high standard, which has been successful in continuously being voted man of the match in almost every game by both the opposing team and my own. My favored position to play is both inside and outside centre, but I am also a very confident and strong outside flanker or fullback.

I have a very strong work ethic and I am not afraid of hard work or committing myself to working at improving all areas of my life, whether it is work, family, rugby, or my fitness and strength. Even during the pandemic, I was determined not to allow myself to slip from my goals of achieving my dream to play rugby, but at the same time, I knew it wasn’t going to be easy, hence why I’m putting myself out there.

One thing I do pride myself on is being a good team player, not only to the team but to my opponents as well. This has given me a good reputation with the players of all other teams of my respect for the game, its values, and principles but also a positive attitude toward officials and opposing team coaches.
