In Memory of Tevin Robertson (COLLABORATION)

     When thinking about Jobs and Careers, we tend to focus on academics, however there are many jobs that require more skill to excel at it. Take for example a career as a cricketer, while the academics must be there you must have that skill in order to excel.

     This Blog post was inspired through a collaboration with Nicole St. John whose blog is entitled "Playing with the Stars". We sat and we discussed careers and we decided to write a blog post in memory of Tevin Robertson, a past national cricketer, who passed away earlier this year. (29/3/14).

     Tevin had the skill and would have reached far in the sporting arena. So how do you become a great cricketer? Practice, Practice, Practice, that's that only way. If you are thinking about making it to the national level, you gotta start somewhere.

    After speaking with Anil Lakhan, Level II cricket coach, he told as that every cricketer must start somewhere. Mr. Lakhan said that if you are serious you must first start off in a small village team, then progress into a bigger team, and apply for tryouts for the national team.

     So if you are thinking about taking up sport as a career, prepare for hard work.


Ending this blog off with a quote from a cricketer:
"My job is to perform, enjoy cricket and thank God for whatever he has given me." -Suresh Raina
