ACADEMIC AND OTHER 2016 Academic Honors (over 85% aggregate) Boarder of the Year Award for Maritzburg College 2016 2011 Speech and Drama Award at DPHS 2009-2010 Speech and Drama Award from the South African Drama Association INTERESTS CRICKET Cricket is my passion and has giving me many opportunities to meet different people from all walks of life and to travel. Cricket is a game of strategy and I enjoy the challenge of trying to find out what the other teams strategy is and trying to combat it by constantly changing mine. It is a mind game where you learn a lot about others and more about yourself, being flexible and adapting under pressure. I have travelled a lot for cricket going on the Leopards Tour in 2014 to England and in 2016 to Sri Lanka. Playing in these very different conditions taught me endurance and perseverance. OTHER INTERESTS Playing golf and surfing is what I do in my free time. It’s time out with my friends and I still enjoy the competitiveness without the pressure to perform. BOARDING Being a boarder has given me the opportunity to be independent from an early age. Making life long friendships and being sociable in an environment that encourages you to participate with individuals from all walks of life. I have learnt about “grit”, sticking it out to the end and dealing with difficult situations and bearing out hard times and figuring out how to cope on my own. It has made me understand who I really am and what my strengths are and how through persistence and determination I have been able to achieve a great deal with both academics and sport. It has been an adventure and has stood me in good stead helping give me a clear idea of my future and what I want to achieve academically and on the sports front.
