Reaching the Scottish Cup Final 3 consecutive year at school. Winning in 2012 was one of the best days of my life.


How are you preparing for the games?

As a team we are meant to be training 3 times a week. Football training is on a Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. With other commitments its difficult to make everyone. Therefore I have been going running, doing fartlek sessions through lunch in school, going tot he gym in free periods and doing strength and conditioning.


What are your targets for the games?
  • To play at my best in every game for the whole duration
  • to learn and improve
  • to enjoy it!
 
 
What are you most looking forward to at the games?

The whole experience to be honest! I look forward to attending the opening ceremony and actually being part of it, representing The Western Isles.
Going away with the team, we all get on so well and are guaranteed to always have a laugh and enjoy ourselves.
Hopefully some nice weather too!!!!
