Henry Port

Henry is only 12, & is a real inspiration.He has been swimming since he was 6 months old & now competes all over the South East of England on most weekends for our local Swimming Club.Henry also Plays very competitive Football for our local Football Team. Henry swims 20-30,000m a week in training,& trains on the Football pitch a minimum of 4 times a week. I have often seen Henry go to a Swimming Gala & Compete for his Swim Team, & then get out of the pool and race miles to play Football for his Football Team,& then race straight back to the Pool, to continue to Compete for his Swim Team again, all on the same day. Now, that is what I call 'True Olympian Team Spirit'. Henry also works for free as a volunteer Football coach with a Professional Coaching Team, to give something back to our local Football club by helping to train Children under 8 years old to play Football. (Is he the youngest Football coach in the Country?). Henry also competes in occasional charity runs,& competes in Cross Country Running,& Football, for his School. Whilst doing all of this Henry remains a Top Grade Student, a Caring & Loving Big Brother, Modest, Kind Hearted, and Funny, with a burning ambition to become a Professional Sportsman, Coach,& Sports Presenter. Henry's hard work, committment, & Team Spirit, helped to inspire me to lead a healthier lifestyle, to swim & run regularly,& even complete the London Marathon. Henry is Blessed with True Olympic Sprirt,& has the Olympic Flame inside him.I am now 13 years old, and I help coach the Under 7 years old Children for my local Football Club, (not the under 8's now). I love Sport and participating in the 2012 Olympic activities will be a dream come true for me.
