Favourite Team and Player?
Of course I’m a Manchester United fan, and my favourite player is David Beckham. The man oozes class and he could take a pretty good free-kick!
Favourite Food?
Love chicken pasta bake and I could literally eat it all day, everyday.
Number one pet peeve?
Being late has to be the biggest bug bare for me, just cannot stand getting somewhere later than your planned arrival time.
Something people might be surprised to learn?
I have some serious skills when it comes to multiplication tables. I used to practice them to beat the kids in my classes when I was at school and became so good I wasn’t allowed to take part in the times tables games!

The Bio
Ralph originally got into coaching a little later than many people would normally expect, but ever since starting he has found it to be an incredible and rewarding journey. He says he has been “lucky to be part of many different schools in my short career so far, and feel that I have made a positive impact on lots of different people wherever I have been”.
From his initial time learning to coach at University to various ‘real world’ experiences, Ralph has found coaching to be an amazing experience and finds the most rewarding part seeing the younger children develop and grow with that great desire to be active.
Ralph has been a Wraparound club lead for AJB since early 2023. His professionalism, approachability and hard work make him the perfect person to run a Wraparound club. His club has thrived since it began, with numbers increasing all the time, thanks to Ralph.
