Inhaltsangabe

Kicking On! How Footballers Win the Post-Retirement Game of Life takes an upbeat look at players who have retired from the game to forge successful, positive and interesting second careers.

Retirement can be a traumatic time of life – particularly if you’re in your mid-30s and football’s all you’ve ever known. Many retired players struggle to cope with that pivotal moment when they have to leave the game for good. There’s a heartbreaking trail of tales of those whose post-footballing lives have been sad or even tragic. But this book looks at the other side of the coin – the players who have flourished after hanging up their boots.

Whether it’s setting up charities, helping others cope with the challenges of life, creating multi-million-pound businesses, going into the media, politics, or back into football itself, there are more than 200 former players here with inspiring feel-good stories to share.

Kicking On! is solid proof that a successful footballing career can be just the first chapter in a fulfilling life.
