How much experience did you have of playing rugby before joining the Corsairs?
I've been playing rugby since 2014. I also was a founding member of the Wessex Wyverns and co-founder of the Reading Renegades.

What made you decide to start up the club?
I thought the LGBTQ+ community in Coventry needed a place to belong that wasn't a bar or an app like Grindr. As a community we are often excluded from sports from a young age either by choice or imposition. It's important to show we can do as much as anyone else.

How did you first come up with the name "Coventry Corsairs"?
I was thinking about a name of the team that had some alliteration with Coventry and remembered that I needed an excuse to wear my pirate costume again. So Corsairs it was!!

What's the best part of being a member of the Corsairs?
Seeing the positive impact it has had on so many souls that otherwise would probably not even have considered joining a team sport.

What are you most proud of achieving since joining the club?
Winning the Beormer Bowl at 'Touch My Brum' in 2021.

What's your favourite memory since becoming a Corsair?
Winning our first match!!

What advice would you give to anyone thinking of joining the club?
What are you waiting for! Come and give it a go - you have nothing to lose.

Finally, what is your nickname within the Club?
I have been told by my lawyers not to say that word!
