In a world of possibilities, Krystal plans on being a high level athlete, as well as a singer songwriter.

Luca has had a love for all sports from a very early age. Football has always been his biggest passion, but he has the ability and desire to play a majority of sports to a good level, a true all-rounder. Luca is also a keen golfer, being previously selected for Surrey golf, although he dedicates his time mostly to the Dorking Wanderers Youth Development football squad. He is a determined sportsman and shows great desire to be the top of his game and progress into the sports industry.

Music Scholar: Archie

Archie started playing the drums at a young age and was a member of ACM and Rockademy. He started playing the trumpet, at his junior School – he was inspired by his older cousin who has travelled around the world playing the trumpet with his Jazz group.
