JHMT's Support
Sameer said: ' The award of an Inspire small grant would mean the world to me because I sincerely believe that I have the potential to represent England in the future if my current achievements are anything to go by. It would also enable me to access vital individual one-to-one coaching and purchase better training equipment.
