Hobbies and Family

I was a keen footballer from around 11 to my mid 30's when my inability to run as fast as the youngsters and my new found love for golf found me hanging up the boots and joining SMRGC (i think in the late 90's).

Once my football playing days were over I was involved with Milton Athletic (the club I finished by playing days at) firstly becoming first team manager and then club secretary. Milton then merged with what was then Sittingbournes largest junior footyball club, Fulston Zebras to become Milton & Fulston in 2008, I continued as club secretary until 2011.

As well as a keen golfer I am an avid West Ham fan. I've been a season ticket holder from The Boleyn days and now at our new home the London Stadium and follow the home and away and even abroad in more recent years.

I love to travel, like trips to the theatre and love a movie!!

Married to Kerry in 1996 we have two children Ryan 26 and Freya 20. We are also parents to two English Bulldogs Bentley and Beau.
