This is my first blog on my new website and it feels only fitting that it is about the website itself.
It’s currently just gone midnight and I’m sat at my computer trying to get my new website looking fantastic before I launch it in just under a week.
Having my own website is quite a landmark for me because in my mind only celebrities and businesses have their own page but here I am putting the finishing touches to it! Although I don’t feel like I’m a celebrity and I’m definitely not business, I just want to share my passion for Wheelchair Basketball with as many people as possible and I figured there was no better way.
My main motivation for setting this up was to promote the visits I do in school and businesses which is another way I’ve found of getting more fans of my sport. I love watching peoples faces as they try out Wheelchair Basketball and I enjoy sharing my story of how I got into the game and my journey so far.
So my plan for the website is to put up regular blogs (although if my schedule is hectic, it might not be as regular as I hope), this includes excerpts from my journal I was writing up to the London 2012 Paralympic Games. I will also be putting up dates of league matches I’m involved in and GB Tournaments wherever they are in the world. Basically as much information as possible about Wheelchair Basketball and where you can get your fix because I know there are a lot of you out there who have an empty space in your lives since the Paralympics finished.
Thank you for reading and keep checking back for regular updates <3
