Ive played footy since I was 5 coming through Willoughby and Willoughby/Mosman juniors, and played my first North Shore game in 2018 when I was 16. I juggled bombers with junior and school footy in 2018 and 2019 before being able to focus wholly on the u19s bombers program from 2020 onwards. Fair to say I’ve absolutely loved it.

Without a doubt the people at the club. From the players, coaches, staff and supporters, you always feel so welcome and valued every minute you spend at the club. We were lucky enough to win a premiership last year and I truly believe a large part of that was the closeness and friendship within the playing group coupled with the incredible support we had from the club as a whole. Its honestly just a fantastic environment and a great group of people to be a part of.

Its an absolute honour to captain the squad again this year. I truly understand the importance of the role and am grateful that I’ve been trusted to fulfil it. The major focus for myself and the u19s program is certainly the development of the players in our squad. Our aim as somewhat of a bridge between junior and senior football at the club, is to make the boys the best north shore players and people they can be. We want to make lifelong friendships and teach the north shore way of playing whilst retaining and develop boys so that when they finish u19s they fit in and flourish in our senior programs, whatever division that may be in. We are also trying to go back-to-back while we are at it ?
