The passion for Rink Hockey comes from my family. My cousins all played, my godfather who was a coach, was a former player as well as a big hockey lover, while my father, despite never having played, is an enthusiast of the sport. In addition to my family, I was born in a region (Carvalhos) where hockey is lived with great passion and enthusiasm, which helped in my adaptation. This integration in hockey made me grow in several ways, because it accompanied my growth as a man. It is a sport that teaches you values, such as the necessary principles to live within a group and within society itself. The biggest challenge is to always try to keep up with any situation and to have the responsibility to play alongside big names. I want to leave my mark as a player who always gave everything for the group. I am thrilled by the fact that it´s a game that demands a lot from the player, be it physically or mentally, by all the necessary coordination and for its beauty and dynamics of the game. Thus, Hockey is my sport of choice, the one I stand up for and I love to practice since I was 3 years old. It will never stop being part of my life, in any way, even so, because both my children are already players themselves.
