Emre Kara (born 13 July 2009) is a student at Co-op Academy Swinton in Salford, Manchester.

Sporting Career

edit

Kara has participated in multiple sports and teams. He spent seven years with the Swinton Amateur Swimming Club, competing in seven swimming galas where he placed 7th, 5th, 5th, 4th, 6th, 2nd, and 2nd. In 2022, he and his team were chosen to represent Swinton in the Isle of Man but did not qualify.

In 2023, after recovering from an injury, Kara decided to leave swimming to focus on rugby. He trained with Folly Lane ARC for nine months and was given two starts in the pre-season, achieving one win and one loss. However, he was unable to register with the team due to the maximum number of dual national players already being registered, leading him to leave the team and rugby.

Kara's most recent sporting experience was with Deans Tigers Football Club, where he trained as a second-choice goalkeeper for one month but did not secure a position for the upcoming season.
