On Monday, we were privileged to welcome an actual, real life professional footballer into our classroom! Carla Cantrell currently plays for Lincoln and has previously played for Leeds United. She has even played for England! Carla talked to us about what it is like being a professional footballer and the challenges and sacrifices she has to make.
It was really interesting to find out how different it is being a female professional footballer compared to a male professional footballer. For example, Carla has to work all day and then go to training for three hours after work! Wayne Rooney doesn’t know how lucky he is!
