I was planning to remain an amateur for a while.

I'm always keen to have more training as a charity patron.

I want to help find opportunities for people to become active participants in their communities.

I love mixing amateurs and professionals.

I'm interested in harnessing the good will and distributed power of people, including novices.

I've always been interested in working with top athletes, athletes who are pushing the edge and are really progressive in the outdoor space and adventure world.

Our all-volunteer force continues to prove itself with a great level of professionalism, personal commitment and a technical competence that is quite remarkable.

If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.

There's a great thing about amateur sport: it is purer. And the athletes are not open to so much pressure with amateur sport.
