Summary

I have experience in Martial Arts training and Instructing. I am currently a 2nd Degree black belt, this shows my dedication to something i am passionate about. I have represented Australia on a number of occasions in 2 different styles of martial arts. I am currently unable to play rugby, due to this i have stepped up to be the team manager so that i am still involved in the club. I sort out the team jerseys and who plays with what number. I also ensure that the jerseys are all returned at the end of the game so they can be washed and returned to the club ready for the next game. I help set up training drills and pack up after training.

I am a very reliable person helping out where i can and stepping up when it is needed.
