Best goal scored

I have scored plenty of goals in a variety of games although I remember when I played for Northop I scored from a hell of a free kick a bit further out from the 18 yard box

Strengths to your game

I’m confident on the ball and always communicate well. I’m not scared to go in for a tackle, I also have a powerful shot and I’d say I’m quite a fast runner.

Weaknesses

I don’t really have any skills on the ball, I get easily frustrated on the pitch.

Best team-mate played alongside

Isabella Reidford. She is a quality player and always made a difference when we used to play for the same team.

For Holywell, it’s got to be Penrhyn Bay. They are a very good team and most of the players have played together for a long time.

My parents and my uncle Harley. They always pushed me to do my best in football and they always come to support me at my matches.

All of them are hilarious although the funniest has got to be Caitlin Latham.

Jo has got some right moves so it’s got to be her

Favourite away ground

This season I haven’t played many away games but Penrhyn Bay’s ground is really nice to play on.

Other sporting achievements

I haven’t got many although a few years ago we had a tournament for badminton and did very well

Personal football ambitions

To improve my physical fitness and just get back to playing.
