I choose to study at Durham University due to its good reputation and the fact that I would be able to continue my cricket commitments with Durham County whilst participating in the university set up. I am studying Business Economics and there are very few universities in the UK who offer this course, so my initial choice was restricted any way. Having had Durham recommended to me by friends who have been here and the appeal of the collegiate system, I decided Durham was the place I wanted to go.
I opted to be part of the Centre of Excellence as I wanted to develop my cricket and saw this training as the ideal opportunity to do so. Furthermore one of my team mates for county was part of the centre when she was at Durham and said that it is a very beneficial thing to do. I haven't been able to make full use of the opportunity as last term a previous knee injury reoccurred and this curtailed my training and then this term a badly twisted ankle prevented any training for a month. However, now fully back to fitness I am attending all sessions and believe my cricket has benefited from this. I fully intend to do the Centre of Excellence next year and now over the injury problems hope to be able to fully participate in it.
