Baller Chat Back

Linval Lewis, Sporting Central Academy

When did you start playing football?

I was eight the first time I played organised football; in grade three at Kellits Primary.

How are you enjoying your game at Sporting Central Academy?

It’s a joy playing for Sporting Central. The camaraderie and everything is good.

How do you prepare for a match?

I usually drink lots of fluid; try to get mentally focused. Hard training leading up to the game.

Is there any ritual/superstition for you?

No. No rituals or anything like that.

When was the last time your coach blasted you and why?

Blast? I can’t remember. Well, maybe not blast, but he usually talks hard to everybody, once you give him a reason.

Which team in the Red Stripe Premier League do you fear the most and why?

Boys’ Town. They are the type of team that never stop playing until the game finish; always running hard.

Who is the best player you have seen in the Premier League?

That would be Jermaine Hue, if you mean right now.

Which player do you find most difficult to play against and why?

I don’t find any player difficult to play against.

Who is your favourite international team and player?

I don’t have a favourite international team. But I like Cristiano Ronaldo.
