I have long been a lover of watching live sport and was fortunate enough to get tickets for London 2012 Olympics (boxing) and Paralympics (swimming & athletics). I’ve also been to various other Athletics events and watched the Formula One British Grand Prix. My greatest sporting passion though is to watch Rugby Union and Football. I’ve completed a tour of each of the Six Nation stadiums which culminated in watching England win the Grand Slam at the Stade de France, and have seen Saracens, Lions, Barbarians, and other international teams play. I have been a season ticket holder for Tottenham Hotspur since 2017 and was a club member long before then. Watching live action, in any sport, for me, is so much more thrilling than watching it on TV and I look forward to being able to take part for many years to come.
