What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

Meeting new friends sharing his passion. Oliver is the youngest of three children and is determined to put his name on the map. Enjoys competition and possesses the drive to accomplish new skills. He is loved by his coaches and team mates alike


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

I believe Oliver's inspiration is the is largely due to his father's support. His Dad is an accomplished athlete and has shared his accomplishments. Whether it is through coaching or as a spectator Oliver admires his father and loves making him proud..as he al ways does


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

Recently Oliver was chosen to be team captain. He was on Cloud 9. At the end of the game I, his grandmother congratulated him. He thanked me but explained he had passed the honour to another player he felt deserved it more and a better choice for the team. I held back a tear as I realized he had matured and realized the true meaning of being a good sport!
