What are you doing now?

I’m in my final year of study in Sport Business Management at Sheffield Hallam University. I am looking to pursue a career related to sport development or sport management.

What skills did you develop as a Team Leader that you use now, or feel will support you in the future?

I have been able to apply some of the mentoring skills I learnt during my time as a team leader to support my U18 girls' football team to develop on and off the pitch. I really hope to use this skill to empower young people through sport in the future.

Can you share a standout moment from your time as a Team Leader that you’re proud of?

At a National School Sports Week football-based event. I was able to encourage a group of girls who didn’t like football to engage creatively and have fun in a football-based activity.

If you had to sum up the impact of being a Team Leader in one sentence, what would you say?

It’s not only made me a better leader but a better person overall too.
