Interest Continued
My main interest away from my working life is ice and inline hockey. I coach/manage an inline hockey 21s and senior team; I am a qualified ice and inline hockey coach. I have previously coached Scotland men's inline hockey team, and Great Britain 16s who in July 2011 I took to the Junior Olympic Games in Los Angeles. This is very challenging but rewarding, and has resulted in many great experiences which have improved my teamwork and motivating skills.
