Description

In this episode I'm joined by Chelmsford City and former Wimbeldon FC goalkeeper Lee Worgan. Lee has had a prolific career in the game, coming through the ranks at Wimbeldon FC off the back of the Crazy Gang era. He then went on to become a mainstay at several non-league clubs at the top end of the pyramid, remarkably amassing over 650 appearances. He shares his thoughts on his footballing journey and how accountability is key to maintaining the high standards required for success in the modern game.   

We Discuss:

• The power of engaging in consistent behaviours and holding yourself accountable
• The growth mindset and the importance of pushing yourself to the limit
• Playing on the edge of failure
• Adaptability and problem solving when you don't fit the typical goalkeeping mould
• Modelling your game off great goalkeepers
• The crazy gang era and why old school initiations shape your personality for the better
• Finding your goalkeeping game face and acting the part in the dressing room
• Putting out the fire at dover
• Bridging the gap between goalkeeping victimhood and genuine failure
• Demystifying mindset and how top professionals apply psychological skills
• The importance of treating people with respect and impacting the environments you work in

Lee has had a remarkable career and commands a lot of respect from those within the goalkeeper's union. It goes without saying…but if you're looking to gain the knowledge of someone who's had a significant impact at all the clubs he's played for, this episode will give you invaluable insight into one of non-league's finest ever products. Whether you are a coach, parent or a goalkeeper looking to carve out a career path, this episode is filled with knowledge bombs which will resonate with any listener.
