Thomas Mooney

I was born in Aston Birmingham but spent my childhood in Dublin Ireland. My family moved back to Winson Green when I was 10 years old, and I continued my education at Cardinal Newman Senior school.

I developed an interest in football at an early age and was a member of the school football team in senior school.

I remained active in the Sunday league and went on to play semi-professional football for Northfield Town and Moore Green.

After leaving school I pursued an apprenticeship in engineering progressing my career through to production technician at Smith and Nephew making devices for the medical industry.

In my late 20’s I switched sport and took up golf which I continue to enjoy at a competitive level.
