GET TO KNOW MAEVE

WHAT DOES YOUR SPORT MEAN TO YOU BEYOND COMPETITION? 

Judo has been part of my life since before I stepped foot on the mat.It’s the reason my parents met & it’s the reason I am the person I am today. The impact judo has had on me is immeasurable & I’m so grateful for every lesson learnt, person met & experience had along this journey.

HOW DO YOU BALANCE THE DEMANDS OF YOUR SPORT WITH YOUR PERSONAL LIFE? 

 I am surrounded by such a strong & understanding support network who are the reason I am able to do what I do. It is obviously very difficult at times but communication is such an important tool to help prevent or solve issues that can arise. A massive learning curve for me was understanding that you don’t need to do everything by yourself & the people around want to help you, so let them.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO ASPIRING ATHLETES LOOKING UP TO YOU?

Do it for you, not for anyone else. There’s a finite life on your athletic career & it could be over in an instant so enjoy the good, cry about the bad & push forward, because success doesn’t just happen by accident.
