It would mean a fantastic opportunity to make the transition from being a national to an international athlete and allow me to take the opportunities that I otherwise wouldn’t be able to.
I am a determined ambitious individual who sets his goals high; any sponsorship would be a privilege and I would endeavour to promote myself and the sponsor to the highest level. I have over the last few years done much in the way of coaching younger athletes, earning their respect and consider myself a good role model

My estimated costs to attend the European Championships alone are £1000, not including the kit which is around another £300. However any sponsorship would be greatly appreciated to pay for race fees and towing etc. As this is a very expensive all year round sport
