Tell us about your football history (Min 100 words) : I am currently playing at Woking Academy which I am starting my 2nd year at, I have also played for Meadow Sports for 6 years which is a Sunday League team playing in West Surrey Premier and for my school team which I have played for 2 years.I have been playing football for Eight years, throughout the Eight years I have played from an average level, to in the recent two years a very high level. For most of my career I have played in goal, however at the start I did have spell outfield playing all round positions which improved my touch and passing. All my life I've wanted to be a professional footballer however in the last 2 years I have stepped it up and started taking football seriously, treating it like a professional would. If I had the opportunity to train every day then I would take it without thinking. Throughout the course of my career I have gone from being an average goalkeeper, building up my confidence and ability into in my opinion a goalkeeper which can handle a high level of play. I have played at these teams throughout my career: Goldsworth Park Rangers, Bisley FC, Meadow Sports, Woking Academy and my School Squad. Also I played a lot of basketball as a youngster which improved my handling, peripheral vision. Also I have taken interest in Athletics which has also improved my athletic ability in goal. I have been at a variety of courses and coaches throughout my career. I have trained with Chelsea academy coaches, my current coaches are my Woking academy coach and also a separate coach which works with Fulham Academy. Over the last season I've played a number of academy's and schools which has gained me the experience I need to go onto an academy side, Noticeable fixtures and results from last season are: Fulham (Won 6-3), Reading (Both Royals sides) (Won 2-1), Brent (lost 1-2), Sussex (Won 10 - 0), 6th Round of the English Schools National Cup, Quarter Final, 2nd Round of Surrey Schools County Cup (Lost 4-0 to Whitgift who came 3rd in last years national cup), District Cup Final (Won 4-3, I conceded 0, other keeper for our squad conceded 3) Aldershot U16 side (Won 6-1) Chelmsford (Won 1-0 in a Tournament) And also other various League Games/Competition Games in County, National and District. Last season I helped Meadow to promotion, gaining the parents player award for my performances throughout the season, also I gained a solid position towards the end of the season in my Woking Academy team being picked for the cup squads over the other keeper that was in the team too.
Write about your Playing Ability (Min 50 words) : My main attributes in goal are my reflex's, diving and verbal communication which reassures the defenders on where to be for set pieces and also throughout the game. Being 6 ft, I am able to confidently claim the ball from high areas and attacking the oppositions forwards for the ball in the air aswell. I command well in the box, claiming anything I can securely from set pieces and corners. I am always aware of my defenders and various situations throughout the game. If a ball get's played over I am quick to think whether to sweep up the play or to hold my ground and create a 1 on 1 situation.
Why should an Academy Director give you a trial (Min 50 words) : My attitude towards both matches and training are very mature and proffesional, I never cause arguments as I take my football seriously. One of my Meadow coaches has tipped me to be successful due to my determination and attitude towards the game, also my goalkeeper coach at Woking has said that I have improved a lot over the last season and I have great potential. My motivation to make it to the top level is greater than any other player at my age I have seen, I thrive to play at top academy's and would accept any opportunity to trial at any club as I would like to further my career from the youngest age possible.
