Recently
Jordan's Father Paul Kitto has been taking Jordan to see a different coach in
Dunstable called Andy Penny. who in Dunstable has the latest technology in coaching. Andy Penny has
been coaching for 26 years and has been the England Team Coach since 2001. Andy has coached several
people such as 3 times lady's World Champion Zara Glover. "Jordan is making very good progress, he has a very good understanding of
the importance of his mental game to his overall performance level.
It is very refreshing to see this in someone of his age
I have been working with him for the last 3 months or so and I must pay
tribute to the good work that Steve Thornton and Jon Zadel have done so
far.
He has performed very well in the trials and it shown his potential when
he can qualify as highly in the oldest age group."

![]() Jordan with his England Trials Invitation |
Last year Jordan began entering junior ranking events
all over the country with some winning results, as he was counting up
his ranking points this year Jordan qualified for the England trials. At
the very young age of 13 Jordan was in the top 20 in the under 16s
section in the Country. Jordan went on and took part in the Trials
where he bowled well but didn't quite make the England Team, this
experience that Jordan has gained has given him more determination to
repeat last years outstanding season and gain the ranking points to take part in next years England
Team Trials. Click here to read the invitation |
| Jordan has achieved so much in such a short time and that is a credit to him, but he has one amazing asset : his parents Paul and Clair Kitto. Paul and Clair have spent a fortune and will continue to support Jordan all the way and for long as it takes for Jordan to reach his goals, they nust take some credit as i am sure Jordan wouldn't have got this far and beyond if it wasn't for his parents, so congrats to you both Paul and Clair. |

| Jordan Kitto would like your help Sponsorship |
| We are looking for companies or individuals to sponsor Jordan
for £250:00 - £400:00 as we need to raise
£2000:00 to enable him to progress to the next level and increase
his level of training. if we can obtain enough sponsorship we plan to take him to the elite bowling training centre in America for a weeks intense training. He will continue to bowl on the national ranking tour to achieve his national ranking and hopefully again make the England trials and achieve the goal of playing for his country. |
| What will you get in return |
| He
would wear your company logo on his shirt in every league game and
tournament he plays, ( like formula 1 - in theory you can buy the
sleeve, front, back etc ), therefore it would be seen, not only locally
but nationally as well, at least three times a week. Everytime he has an article written about him, in local or national press and Ten Pin Bowling Magazines, this will advertise your company. For a copy of Jordan's Portfolio or any other information please contact Mr. Paul Kitto on mobile : 07805 924935 thank you. |
