Seamus Loftus speaks about life, the game, and the importance of opportunity in youth soccer. His Citizen Footballer Project is a different way of looking at the game, and could be massively beneficial to the growth of soccer in Memphis. His thoughts on Ballina Town, his hometown club, show just how powerful an influence the local team can be in the heart of a young player. Everyone who loves the game should listen.
