On this week's interview series episode, Cavalry FC head coach
Tommy Wheeldon Jr. joins James Sharman, Craig Forrest, Jimmy
Brennan and Brendan Dunlop. After a slow start to the season, the
Canadian Premier League side has shot up the table with some
impressive results and took MLS's Vancouver Whitecaps to penalties
in their Canadian Championship quarterfinal earlier this
month.
The 43-year-old Englishman talks about the development of the
game in Canada, why Canadians are a driver for change on and off
the pitch, how to recruit players in a brand new league and
managing players and people through a pandemic. They also touch on
Sam Adekugbe's rise from Calgary Foothills FC to staring for the
Canadian men's national team, Marco Carducci's testicular cancer
survival story, and more.
Presenters: James Sharman, Craig Forrest, Jimmy Brennan,
