Our Team

I am the founder and owner of Active8 Multi-Sports, with a lifelong passion for sport and physical activity. From an early age, I recognised the positive impact sport can have, shaping skills and values that stay with you for life.

I hold Level 2 coaching qualifications in Football, Rugby, Athletics, Swimming and Orienteering, and later qualified as a secondary PE teacher. I have dedicated my career to working with children with SEND and am currently Headteacher at Amwell View, a role I have held for the past four years.

Alongside my education career, I have founded and co-founded two charities focused on providing sporting opportunities for individuals with learning and physical disabilities. One of these organisations was honoured with the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service in 2017 at Buckingham Palace.

My passion for high-quality sport led me to establish Active8 Multi-Sports, where I am committed to providing 8–11 year olds with a wide range of engaging, fun, and professionally delivered sporting experiences. I recognised the importance of giving children the opportunity to learn skills across a variety of sports before moving into secondary school, without the need to commit to a single activity for an entire day.

My name is Max Lawrance, I’m 25 years old and currently in my final year of university, working towards achieving my BA (Hons) in Secondary Physical Education with QTS.

As I come to the end of my degree, I am really looking forward to beginning my career in teaching and making a positive impact on young people’s lives through sport and education.

Sport has always been a huge part of who I am. I am a passionate cricketer and had the honour of representing Hertfordshire last summer, alongside playing locally for Hertford Cricket Club. I am also heavily involved in football, playing for my local team, Bengeo Trinity FC.

I am incredibly excited to be part of Active8 and can’t wait for the camp to start. I’m looking forward to working with the children, helping them develop their skills, build confidence, and most importantly, have fun in a positive and supportive environment.

My name is Brooke Godber, I am 22 years old and I am currently in my final year at the University of Bedfordshire working towards a degree in Secondary PE Teaching.

I am excited to start my journey in teaching and inspire young people to grow in confidence and ability.

Sport has always played a huge role in who I am, particularly netball. I have been involved in netball since I was in primary school! I have been a part of Wodson Park Netball Club for 10 years and have had the honour of captaining the current Ladies 1 squad at Herts County for the past 4 years.

A fun fact about me is that I am also a black belt in Karate! I started at GKR Karate when I was just 6 years old and achieved my black belt when I was 12, making me the youngest black belt in the region at that time.

I am incredibly enthusiastic about sharing my love for sport and education with children. I am committed to helping them build confidence, develop their skills and most importantly, enjoy being active in a fun, supportive and inclusive environment.

I am really looking forward to being part of the team and contributing to a positive and engaging experience for everyone involved.

My name is Alfie, I’m 21 years oldand I am a teaching assistant at the Amwell View School.

Sport has been a huge part of my life, especially growing up and through my time at school with many of my first wins, friendships, achievements made across every sport I had on offer, especially rugby.

Over the past four summers, I have worked at a large-scale summer camp serving over 500 children in New York, USA. This is where I developed strong leadership, communication, and mentoring skills in a fast-paced environment.

In addition to this, I have coached children in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, helping them build discipline, confidence, and resilience.

Alongside my coaching experience, I have been actively training in mixed martial arts (MMA).

I can’t wait to get started with Active8, working with the children try as many sports as possible whilst creating a safe and fun environment. I owe a lot of my personal progression to sports coaches and look forward to giving back to the groups!

Working at Amwell has been the most rewarding and insightful experience. I’m looking forward to using what I’ve learnt to help build confidence and inspire the children at Active8.

I am so excited to start at Active8 as I love being able to give children a space to be creative and have fun!
