Style of Play
Courtney primarily plays as a right back and is a versatile player, also being able to play at left back and centre back. He is an attacking player and has pace and athleticism. Courtney said of his play "I can run for 90 minutes up and down and get forward quite well, as well as getting back. I’m strong, quick and quite good in the air for my height" in 2010. York manager Martin Foyle described him as "exciting" and said "He's got the energy to get forward".

Famous quotes containing the words style and/or play:
“The flattering, if arbitrary, label, First Lady of the Theatre, takes its toll. The demands are great, not only in energy but eventually in dramatic focus. It is difficult, if not impossible, for a star to occupy an inch of space without bursting seams, cramping everyone else’s style and unbalancing a play. No matter how self-effacing a famous player may be, he makes an entrance as a casual neighbor and the audience interest shifts to the house next door.”
—Helen Hayes (1900–1993)
“I get a little Verlaine
for Patsy with drawings by Bonnard although I do
think of Hesiod, trans. Richmond Lattimore or
Brendan Behan’s new play or Le Balcon or Les Negres
of Genet, but I don’t, I stick with Verlaine
after practically going to sleep with quandariness”
—Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
