“I was introduced to canoeing, I have always practiced several sports as a youngster, and at the age of 11, I started the canoeing competition, but I stopped competing. years later, in order to focus on football.
One night later, in 2015, I met Richard Dober JR. The latter convinced me to recommend to class.
