“I’ve played with the team for about a year now. I joined last season, and it’s one of the things I love doing. We’re like a big family, and even though we lose more often than we win, it’s good banter and a load of fun. I’ve always played for able bodied teams, and I’ve never had any trouble with my disability playing for them. It’s nice to be doing something where they’re not checking up on us all the time, they let us get on with it, and wait for me to tell them rather than them asking me things. I’ve got lots more freedom when I’m there, it’s pushed to one side and you’re just there, having a good time.”

“My mum’s been there for us all the time, all what I’ve been through, and since I was little. She always takes us places and drops us off, and when I was getting my operations she would always be there, she’d stay in the hospital, like, straight afterwards, like, she would have her own bed and that. She would stay over to make sure I was okay… If I was upset or anything like that, she would make us feel better and when I came home from the hospital, when I had my leg in the cast she did stuff for us.”
