5 MINUTES WITH INTERVIEW would’ve meant our program would have stopped completely. And that trickles down. That affects thousands of kids across the country with cerebral palsy, or acquired brain injuries. So, it’s really important to us to create something more sustainable. What have been some of your highlights playing in the Pararoos teams? There’s been lots of playing highlights that have been really special. And every time you put on the jersey, is awesome. Had a few good games where I’ve scored some good goals and things like that which have been quite memorable. But probably the best has to be England in 2015 when my family came over and got to see me play. To share that with them was really cool What are your goals going forward with the Pararoos? I’m turning 30 this year and I’ve been involved in the team since I was about 12. I’d like to think I’ve got a few more years and then from there, it would be good to step into a team management role and keep developing the game. I think as individuals, we can make a huge impact on inclusion and changing the way people think about disability, and that’s a big passion of mine. To do that as a job, would be pretty cool.
