I am a young and ambitious Sports Journalist and commentator with a passion for writing about football. Based in London, my portfolio of work has largely been built remotely but has also included plenty of travel and in person coverage.

What is Beach Soccer?

For the past two years whilst finishing my degree, I have taken to commentating on multiple Beach Soccer tournaments featuring on ESPN and Beach Soccer TV.

These tournaments often take place all over the world in places such as El Salvador, Saudi Arabia, Georgia, Moldova and most of Western Europe. Some of the tournaments have seen me travel to these locations or work remotely.

A day in Beach Soccer can be a long one, with some tournaments requiring 8 matches throughout the day and often taking one hour and a half per match.

Still, the sport rarely has a dull moment with games often ending in high scorelines meaning I have gained great experience in covering important moments.
