A catch up with Charlotte

“Push yourself and don’t be afraid to try new skills”

As well as catching up with Former Student Hannah Jones, we thought it would be good to see how current First Year student Charlotte Neal has settled into college life, and how she has found the first term and a half studying, training at playing with us.

Charlotte is a talented top order batter and wicketkeeper who is currently involved with Cheshire and part of their emerging players programme. She represented Cheshire Under 18 Girls last year.

We asked Charlotte a couple of questions….

How have you found the course so far? 

I have found the course interesting to write about in assignments and learn about, I also think the course is perfect for me because it's all about sport. 

How have you found it, with being a female on the course? 

I have found it okay because I feel welcomed by everyone and don’t have any worries about it. I find it challenging sometimes when training, but I already feel like I'm improving by it.  
 

How has training been? 

I really enjoy training because the sessions are always filled with drills that will improve my skills and I like how they are laid out and how they coach us.  
 

What about the games that you played in September? 

I found the games helpful because it helped me get closer to the boys and be able to push myself to become more confident in matches  
 

What advice would you have for a female thinking of joining the course? 

Push yourself and don’t be afraid to try new skills  
 

What are you most looking forward to in the future, course wise? 

I'm looking forward to playing more matches with the boys and I'm looking forward to seeing how much I improve in the season.
