Football-mad student Jude Aston is celebrating after being nominated for a prestigious award for his sporting blogs.
Year 9 student Jude has made it through to the final shortlist of the Football Blogging Awards, which will be held at Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium on May 9th.
The Aston Villa supporter has been running his blog, Jude’s Journey, for the past 18 months. It has seen him interview many current and former footballers such as Paul Gascoigne, Jack Grealish and World Cup winner Ossie Ardiles, as well boxing stars such as Tony Bellew.
Jude is in the running to be named Best Young Content Creator at the Football Blogging Awards.
He said: “I feel very privileged to be nominated for an award of this magnitude. To be nominated out of 144,000 people is an achievement in itself! I also feel this could be a platform to get my message across to people that you shouldn’t let anything stop you in life and you can achieve anything you like!”
Budding sports reporter Jude’s blog is available on YouTube, whilst he also uploads his video blogs to his Instagram page.
