SA: What are your early memories of playing football when growing up?

JC: Honestly, all my favourite moments are from when I was younger playing football. I’ve been lucky enough to achieve a lot in my football career, but I think being young and just playing with absolute freedom – I don’t think anything can compare to that. I was lucky enough to play with all of my friends when we were younger with Warwick and to achieve some great things there. So that was definitely great. And I got to play football and play rugby. I had the best of both worlds, really.
