When did you start playing hockey and what was it that drove you to play for your country?

Started playing at age 9 for Ellon Gordon Hockey Club. Played in goal at the age of 10 as I used to play in midfield but I wouldn't pass the ball to anyone. I was really lucky with the people that coached me at a young age. Colin Gallacher and Gordon McFarlane of Ellon Gordon Hockey Club were huge influences on my hockey career at a young age and helped me to play for Scotland under -15, 16 and 18. Following on from that Murray Carnie has coached me for the past 10 years and has been a huge motivator for me in my hockey career and still coaches me in the senior team.
