I am a former professional rugby league and rugby union player with years of experience competing at the highest level of sport. My career in elite sport taught me not only the physical demands required to perform at the top, but also the importance of mental resilience, discipline, and personal growth.

After retiring from professional rugby, I founded Signature Elite Coaching Academy (SECA) to share that experience and help the next generation of athletes unlock their full potential. SECA works with elite youth athletes across a range of sports, providing tailored strength & conditioning, performance coaching, and mindset support.

What makes SECA different is our whole-athlete approach, we focus on building not only physical performance but also mental wellbeing, confidence, and life skills. We recognise that every young person is unique, with different strengths, challenges, and learning styles. 

That’s why our programmes are adaptable for all abilities, including those with special educational needs or additional support requirements.

We create safe, structured, and encouraging environments where students can:

• Improve fitness, coordination, and overall health
• Learn teamwork, communication, and leadership skills
• Build resilience and confidence both in sport and everyday life
• Experience success in small, achievable steps
• Feel valued, understood, and supported

With my background in high-performance sport, my coaching qualifications, and years of mentoring young people, I am passionate about using physical activity as a tool for engagement, motivation, and personal development. Whether working with aspiring professional athletes or supporting students with special educational needs, my mission is the same, to help them believe in themselves and achieve their version of success.
