Conor O'Keefe: The Journey & The Mountain

<p>In this episode I'm joined by Macclesfield Town goalkeeper Conor O'Keefe. Conor's journey to the professional game has been far from orthodox. Having previously been released by the silkmen after a one year pro deal, Conor pursued his academic qualifcations at Loughborough University which is one of the worlds best academic institutions for high-performance sport. Following the completion of hsi degree and the set-up of his youtube page, he moved to Madrid as part of a year abroad studying. A season of professional football in Spain gave him the taste of football abroad and led him to move to Sweeden, completing two seasons in Scandanavia before returning home to Macclesfield. </p> <p> </p> <p>Conor's journey is nothing short of remarkable and acts as a reminder that having a career in the game is possible for anyone; it just depends how badly you want it. </p> <p> </p> <p>If you like this podcast, please leave me a 5* review as it really does help us reach more goalkeepers around the world. </p> <p> </p> <p>If you would like exclusive insight into the world of the goalkeepers mindset, you can follow the podcast here: </p> <p> </p> <p>Instagram: @thegoalkeepersmindset</p> <p>Twitter (X): @thegkmindset</p>
