“All I know most surely about morality and obligation I owe to football”,
Seven years of Verite Sport

I am grateful to God who has opened so many doors for me, to all of you who have believed in me when my career might have been over and for the favour I have had from so many sports administrators, especially British Athletics.
Verite Sport exists to promote a Christian presence in sport and to help sportspeople believe in Jesus. Thanks to all who have walked with me these last 7 years.
