Volunteer

I am honoured to serve as a coach for the Scotland Girls Handball Squad, a role I was selected for by the board due to my personal success and extensive experience in both the sport and coaching. As a coach, I serve as a role model for the players, developing and executing training sessions, as well as strength and conditioning programs. My ability to manage time, plan effectively, and communicate clearly has been essential in achieving successful outcomes. Through the squad's participation in international competitions, I have had the opportunity to travel and engage in various tournaments abroad.
