BRISTOL FLYERS Rohndell Goodwin
Bristol Flyers guard Rohndell Goodwin reflects on the season so far as the regular season comes to a close and the BBL Play-Offs beckon.

“With the regular season coming to an end, my first professional season has had its ups and downs, but overall I can say I enjoyed being in the U.K. a lot, and that the Bristol Flyers is a wonderful organisation that take cares of their players. Everyone, from the coaching staff, the fans and the Bristol Sport staff, are always in good spirits!

The season so far has been good; we set some goals and we’re beginning to achieve them. We had one of the best starts to the season that the Bristol Flyers has ever had (since going professional in the BBL), and we are now guaranteed a winning BBL record for the first time ever. We work hard everyday to better ourselves as a team and as men so it’s great when it pays off.
.
Playing at the SGS College Arena has been great; the fans have been cheering hard and loud since I've landed in England and creates a really good atmosphere at home games. With qualification to the BBL Play-Offs now certain, we now have a chance to do something that the Flyers have not done in the BBL, which is finish top six in the standings, so it’s very exciting.
.
Playing an intense eight month season (involving many back-to-back games) creates a lot of wear and tear on your body, so I have to make sure I am preparing and eating right. One of the ways I do this is with Getbuzzing’s
WOWBUTTER bars (a nut-free flapjack bar), which I enjoy eating regularly because they are high in protein, use natural ingredients and don’t contain any artificial flavours, colours or preservatives. Its something I grab on the go before a work out or training, but also something I can eat at half-time to keep me going for the rest of the game.
With the Play-Offs coming up I’m really hoping that we can end my first professional season on a high with a strong post-season performance!”
