Influential Characters: My dad introduced me to badminton and since then I have not looked back. My dad coached me and I did very well in my junior years. Looking at my results I was then invited to join the National team after completing my GCSE’s. Even then my dad has always been there advising me and guiding me throughout my badminton career and also advising me to sit for my A Levels as an independent student (studying on my own) whilst playing badminton full time.
