So, brief rundown of my playing experience thus far…and if you’re wondering what I’m doing in South Africa right now, click here.

As you might know already, now that I have taken this short break from playing, the passion really burns from within me. I find myself constantly looking at opportunity, chance and possibilities to continue what I started 14 years ago on a small cement pitch. Soon enough, a little planning and a lot of training, I’ll be back on this journey limited by time, age, and health. So in this important life transition, I thought I would take a second and reflect on the first half of my playing career. I mean this is more so for my readers, so you can place the face with the words, without the floating phantom perception that comes with the obscure name Spirrs Guy. But nonetheless, i was fun for me to reflect back, because honestly, I just don’t remember it all.

So, half time speech: just a brief overview of what went on. For further, in dept thoughts and experiences in playing Youth, Club, ODP, College, and PDL through the years stay tuned, you gotta give me a chance to write them all.
