Playing in 5/7 aside leagues with my mates. Going to the gym as much as I can and generally anything to do with sports or outdoor activities.
What I love about being a coach is seeing progression in players. Seeing them gain confidence and improve not just on the pitch but also off the pitch as a person too.

Being a full-time mum I don't get many opportunities for hobbies ... but I love doing anything that allows me to be creative! 🙂
I love being the person that greets everyone in the morning - seeing the children excited for their sessions is something I will never get bored of!

Chilling with my family, playing football and making music
It’s an honour to be part of such a joyful organisation that comes with a new challenge every session, along with all the fun it’s also a great responsibility. I feel proud Being one of the first to see it all from the start as I grew and matured here at LFS from a young age till now. Looking back at my journey here as a coach I can truly say I wouldn’t be the person I am today without the help and excellent skills I picked up working along side the parents, coaches, Ellen Maggs and none other than Ben Corbyn forever grateful for the opportunity.

Its pretty cool when you see a child develop and perform skills that they initially thought was impossible, coaching at LFS has allowed me to meet a variety of great people which has made coaching more enjoyable.

I love to keep myself busy with a variety of sports, from badminton to football, from tennis to cricket. If I am not playing sports, I’m reading or drawing.
Coaching at LFS has meant that I have got to reconnect with football, as it has given me the opportunity to see it in a different light - as I used to the on the other side of things, as a player. But as a coach, I love seeing players grow in terms of their ability.
