Coach Grant

Coaching Style

"For as long as I can remember I’ve always been involved with sport. As a child I tried every sport and I’m extremely grateful for these opportunities. Sport has provided me with lifelong friends, opportunities to travel, and valuable life skills"

I started my coaching career at school, as I wanted to give back to sports clubs that provided me with such enjoyment from a young age. I strongly believe creating a fun environment at sport lessons can provide young athletes with inspiration and a sense of achievement.

As someone who has competed at both team and individual sports to a high level, I understand the qualities needed to develop as an athlete. These skills are things I am looking to instil in others from a young age.
