Tell us about your football history (Min 100 words) : Hi, My name is James Chan. I am born in Hong Kong but my nationality is Australian. I was born on 09/10/1997. I am a center back who is right footed. I am 5’4, weighing 55kg. I’m also capable of playing many other positions such as left and right full back, left and right wing, central midfield (holding) and attacking midfield. I have a good shot on me and I am a fairly good defender. Last season, I played in the U16s Henderson league in HK. I scored a team-high of 8 goals, 7 coming from headers that were from corners. My football history is reasonably long, because I’ve been playing football for about 13 years and I want to play football in the future as I believe I have the potential to become a great player. My favourite team is Arsenal. However, I do not mind playing for any professional football team as I am keen to learn and willing to take advice from coaches and all staff as I am trying to reach my full potential. Therefore, I hope a team will allow me to show my ability and skill and prove my worth. I currently play as a semi-professional football in the league organized by the Hong Kong Football Association. I currently play for a local team, which is Southern District U16. I believe we are currently ranked as the third best team in Hong Kong for my age group. I am a Starting 11 player. I have played in various positions over the past few years. I started off playing for HKFC at right wing and left wing for 5-6 years. Then I moved on to right back and left back for a year or so as the coach believed I had well timed tackles and I have the ability to defend well and use my pace for catching the wings and also overlapping. Then I moved clubs to Southern District, playing for the under 16s and started playing as the holding defensive midfield as well as playing the center back position for 2 years now. I have scored 8 goals last season as a center back as that is my ideal position. I am the last defender as I have the pace and skill to block attackers from scoring. Both my goals were headers from corners. Although I am fairly short, I have a great jump height, with a vertical of 40cm. Currently I play in both the U18s league. I was also called up to the reserves league in Hong Kong. This year, I have played mostly central midfielder (defensive) and right back. I am born in 1997 so therefore I am actually only 16, turning 17 in October. However, the reserves league is the same system as a reserves league in the premier league. I am only 16 but I play against professionals. I am registered in the hkfa.com : http://www.hkfa.com/en/club/
