Most Memorable Moment

I have 2. Making my first appearance for Wales in Coleraine back in 1995 was a proud moment. The other was reaching the Welsh League winners with Freystrop for the first time. Back then it was held in Builth Wells. I was in the singles and came first in my event beating Bob Davis (former British Champion) and Craig Jones, who was the current British and World singles champion at the time. The support I had was unbelievable, just remember everyone on the balcony going wild. Being a 13-year-old kid experiencing that for the first time was great.

Favourite Format and Position Played

When I was younger, singles, but I was good then and could hold my own a bit better lol. I have enjoyed pairs or 2 in the 3s perhaps. Some fond memories in those events

Any other sports played

Hockey and Snooker

Representative honours

Representing Wales on 10 separate occasions. Also winning my first Welsh title in the pairs with Bryn Phillips. He was 70 at the time. I have never tried so hard to win something for someone else and not only was I happy to win, I guess I had more satisfaction that he had won too.
