Personal Statement

Having lived in 3 countries I appreciate differences in tradition and culture. As a person; I am confident, creative and open minded. I enjoy the challenge of new perspectives, broadening my knowledge, and helping me tackle problems innovatively, an essential skill in the global village of modern society. My charisma helps me relate to people and assists me in leadership positions to unify and direct great people to do greater things. For this reason I believe that not only would I transition into most team as a well rounded player technically, but also would be a great personality to have in the locker room! 

My footballing knowledge and ability is substantial and I feel I could be a great addition to any team. Not only do I believe I am technically and physically of appropriate standard to qualify, but I am willing to work as hard as possible to best represent myself, the team and most importantly the school, both on and off the pitch! I am a dedicated and hardworking individual, this in addition to my excellent social skills would allow me to have a positive influence in the people around me and would strengthen the ‘dressing room scene’ at any school's men's soccer programme. 

Fun facts about me: 

- My ambition is to work for myself

- I love the arts!

-  I am fascinated by the pioneering spirit of entrepreneurship

-  I also love to watch/listen to old movies and music cause I'm a big fan of most things retro!

Club Information

  • Seasons of Club Experience
  • 3 seasons
  • 2019 Future Lions International (the UK campus) (Interantional football academy )
  • I played at the future lions for the entirety of their 2019/20 season whilst attending lower 6th at Wellingborough school. This was my first taste of being a student athlete internationally. Here I worked with UEFA qualified coaches (Level B - being the highest at the academy). http://www.thefuturelions.com
  • 2019 Kettering Football club (U21s/U19s)
  • Kettering football club is in the FA trophy tournament and currently plays in the National league north (United Kingdom). Their senior team won the league the season I played for their U19s & U21s side. We played prestigious competition, most notably Norwhich City U21s and Mansfield Town U21s. Norwich City is in the Premier League & Mansfield town is currently in EFL league 2; both clubs are in the FA cup (at senior and and junior levels). I was fed into the Kettering youth squads as a result of playing for the future lions football academy and being identified as someone who was capable of playing at that level. Football at Kettering was far more physically demanding than it was technically and this was where I built on my speed and got my first taste of what true strength is at a men's footballing level. I learned the importance of a healthy lifestyle off the pitch and began attending (and still regularly go to) the gym to work on my athleticism.
  • 2019 Silver Strikers youth (Youth side to the silver strikers, one of the most successful Malawian Premier league teams )
  • I played with the silver strikers youth side for the entirety of the 2019 summer up until October when u returned to the UK to further my studies at Wellingborough School. Silver strikers are linked below... https://int.soccerway.com/teams/malawi/silver-strikers-fc/17322/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Strikers_FC
