Hello!
Welcome to High Springers! I created this club back in 2014 after having finished my university degree. Initially I didn’t really know what I wanted to do with my career, but what I did know is that I absolutely loved working with children and I loved coaching. I had spent years at uni studying sport and exercise science, teaching and coaching in the hope of becoming a PE teacher, however after several placements I decided that I didn’t want to spend my days convincing children to take part in sport, instead help them to flourish in a sport they loved, because they wanted to!
Even whilst I was at university I was working part time as a Nanny looking after three lovely children and I was still coaching alongside this. I knew that my passion was working with children and so I decided to take the plunge and start my own club. It was the best thing I ever did! I not only get to spend my week watching children learn through enjoyment but have so much fun doing so.
I have worked with a number of fabulous coaches and mentored lots of them too. I am so proud to have such a friendly and welcoming club and that is thanks to my lovely team of coaches and the members we have.
I always have great ideas and exciting projects in mind, and so after spending many years coaching myself I have now taken a step back to be able to grow the club, help mentor and develop our coaches and implement all my wonderful ideas.
I hope that you will join me and the club and be apart of this exciting journey and become apart of our HS family.
