Are you interested in the ups and downs of being an aspiring professional footballer and what it is like being a lead coach and integral part of one of the most interesting and exciting clubs (and projects) in the football league – Salford City? If so, you are in the right place…
In 2017, Lewis joined Salford City Academy and his role was to bring the experience he gained at Burnley (a Premiership Academy) and work for the Class of 92 owners to develop a new Football Academy with Jamie Russell.
He openly shares his experiences as an aspiring professional footballer, the highs and lows and how he has become the coach and person he is today. This is a fantastic and ‘real honest’ insight for all parents, young players, and aspiring coaches.
