About: 

I have enjoyed this fine game for over 25 years and intend on playing, coaching, watching and supporting this game until I am at least 102 years old. I have played at a national school level and a senior provincial level, including a masters national level. Yes, I am that old I can play masters hockey. But that's what we love about this game so much, we can play forever. I currently coach the Wits Ladies 1st team and play for Crusaders Ladies Prem side. I enjoy coaching all age groups and abilities and try get involved where and when ever I can. I have had the privilege of working with the SA U21 squad and the SA Ladies Indoor Side. I strive to evolve my knowledge of this game daily by watching, learning, speaking and practicing daily. My coaching goals are to eventually coach a national setup but daily I live my hockey dream by just being around like minded hockey friends.

Currently:

I am the head of operations for a Sports Marketing company: Frontiers Sport

Role Model:

I don't have one, as I like to look up to people that work hard, train hard and practice what the preach.

Career Highlight:

Winning gold at the Boys U18 IPT as the coach for the KZN Midlands Boys team. Winning goal with my Southerns Team at the 2017 IPT in Durban - it was a nail bitter.

Favourite Quote:

Work harder than you did yesterday to make sure tomorrow you push more boundaries you didn't know you even had.

Keep pushing the limits and stay true to you be it as a player, coach or even just a fan. Expect the best by giving the best.
