I had the pleasure of attending Colours 2018 awards ceremony at the Titanic in Belfast. I received a full colours award for basketball which was great but most importantly; the girls and guys basketball team won club and team of the year, well deserved if I say so myself. This was actually my second time attending the Titanic for a special event so I was excited to see the beautiful place once again. The first thirty to forty-five minutes per say were like a sip and mingle with people before we all bein to get seated. (There were assigned seats haha) I was seated at a table alongside some other athletes of coleraine I believe. I received a lovely three course meal and my favorite part was of course dessert which consisted of a white chocolate delight with ice cream and a couple other things. I also enjoyed the appetizer which was a vegetable soup. (Eat your veggies and fruit young kids) Everyone looked so nice dressed up and I’m sure they were enjoying the night just as much as I was. My time here in Northern Ireland is coming to an end and I was glad to see a couple of familiar faces because it may be the last time I see them until I come back to Ireland to visit. My basketball season here at Ulster University as an elk has been eventful and I could say with the high and lows of the season it was all around a good experience that I enjoyed. Basketball the sport in general, whether you play it for fun or professionally and just watch it for entertainment purposes, in my opinion the amount of people you can touch is limitless and the amount of relationships you can make is countless. Sport changes lives literally everyday so if you want to get involved within any sport and any way I one hundred percent support and push you towards getting involved, you will enjoy your time indeed. i was blessed with so many opportunities because I played the sport and happen to be good at it so I encourage you all to do the same.
