Current 1st XV Player Shelford RFC

Former Player Leicester Tigers

My experiences have come from being involved with Leicester Tigers through my youth. The professional experience I gained there laid the foundations for my drive and passion to create resilient, hardworking, coachable young people.

I have been coaching since 2000 and during my playing pathway I have been fortunate to work under and alongside some fantastic coaches: Neil Back, Graham Rowntree, Carl Douglas, Kevin Maggs, Dick Matthews and Dan Richmond to name just a few. All of whom strive to realise the potential of those they coach.

This, along with my belief that 'enjoyment' should be at the core of all the sport we do, forms my ethos for coaching young individuals and I strive to tailor sessions to best develop each individual's technical, tactical, mental, physical and lifestyle capabilities.
