I play football and Ski. Training sessions with both of these sports has helped me by providing me with a structure to play sport and focus on improving my skills- like my parallel skiing. This has helped me to understand the importance of commitment and routine to make progress. I have also learned that being part of a team is so important- building up a sense of community and growing my confidence. Now I am less anxious and withdrawn with my team members and also at work and in my work experience placements. It has helped me to appreciate and use my leadership skills- I love to support my team mates who might need the sort of help that I am able to give. Sport has helped has helped me learn about healthy lifestyles and given me a focus for conversation and for training- like routinely going to the gym. Sport has introduced me to so many people in this country and abroad.
