Fun Facts:
What stick do you use and why do you choose it?
I use the OBO ROBO Straight As stick because of its lightweight and comfortable grip, as well as its high carbon content for strong power on rebounds and stick saves.
What legguards, kickers, and helmet do you use and why did you choose them?
I use the OBO ROBO Plus Legguards and Kickers because of its wide coverage I get when I make leg saves across the goal and control on ground skills. Also, because of the great power and distance I get when clearing balls.
How long have you been playing field hockey, and what made you first want to?
I have been playing field hockey for 7 years and was first drawn to the exciting gear and equipment that the goalkeeper wore. I also loved how goalies could use their feet, unlike field players, which intrigued me to try out goalie, and I have loved it ever since.
