Sporting Profile Issue 17: Jones PE Teachers Sporting Profile -Each week we would like to share with you what your teachers have been doing outside school: Mr Jones Since as far back as I can remember I have enjoyed being active and involved in sport. Sport was a huge part of school life, very similar to Maiden Erlegh, and being a welsh school the sport of choice was Rugby. Much of my school life was playing rugby, however it wasn t my favourite sport. In fact, I found a huge passion for Hockey. I played Hockey for the House and represented the school in local and national championships. Moving away to University was great fun for me, I was able to get out of the small village life of Wales and during fresher s week took the opportunity to sign up to every sports club going. I tried various sports and martial arts from Polo, Ultimate Frisbee, Judo and Karate. However one sport in particular took my fancy, Rowing. It turned out I quite like early mornings and the amazing feeling of being free as you row on a river as the sun rises. To this day I still row and enjoy every minute of it. I have had the opportunity to represent both my University and Reading at various competitions and even won a few over the years. Present- I still row for Reading Rowing Club as part of the senior mens squad, but split my time between training and rowing myself and coaching our development squad. Coaching is a great opportunity to share my passion and love for the sport and share my knowledge and top tips along the way. Highlight: You never forget the wins and the trophies but sometimes the best moments are the ones that don t go to plan but you learn the most from. My first ever rowing race was a long 5K head race and it was a disaster. However, my mates and I had the most amazing time, we loved every second of it and felt a huge sense of achievement when we completed it. Also, coaching our women s development squad last year was a highlight as by the end of the season the entire squad had de noviced and won a race or two. Lowlight: I ll never forget my first sculling race, I lost by balance at the start of the race and capsized the boat, going for a swim in the river and losing the race. Sporting Heroes: Pete Reed A great motivational rower and GB Olympian who proves that through hard work and determination you can succeed. Next issue it will be Miss Teale s sporting profile. 10
