RECEIVES PLAYER OF YEAR AWARD NOW WANTS IPSWICH TOWN TRIAL
Tell us about your football history (Min 50 words) : I have played through the teams at Bures Utd since I was six, and in those years I have been at the center of a successful defense (winning two promotions and several local cups) except for one season in midfield. I find that my ball skills and passing ability mean that I can generate attacks after winning tackles or interceptions. Since 2005/2006 season I have won four supporters player of the year awards, three players player awards, and one player of the year award, together with numerous man of the match awards. I practise ball skills on my own as well as training with the team and am always looking to improve my game. This season I have established myself in the senior first team and can easily hold my own despite not being physically mature yet. I would love the chance to benefit from professional training sessions.
Write about your Playing Ability (Min 50 words) : I've always been told that I have assurance on the ball and read the game maturely, and I try to use skill and vision as well as strength in my game. My all round game is sound, but with a few areas to work on, and I can play in several position, including full back and wide or central midfield.I am always working to make sure that however or wherever I get the ball I can control it easily and use it well.
Why should an Academy Director give you a trial (Min 50 words) : I think my trial application is based on real potential. I have a good team ethic and generally get on well with people. As well as my playing qualities I am used to commitment and recently got a long service award from the Colchester and District youth League for long service to Bures Utd to prove this. I realize that in any field very hard work is needed to progress, and don't imagine professional football is any different.
