The Climb
Ep 1. Kei Kamara on Mentors & Giving Back
Today on The Climb, Adrian is joined by MLS All-Star Kei Kamara.
Kei Kamara was born and raised in Sierra Leone, and made his way to the US through a refugee program when he was just 16. And, it was back in 2005 at California State University (Dominguez Hills) where his soccer prowess started to get some real attention -- and 15 years later he sits on 148 professional goals, that has spanned 7 different clubs in the MLS; a loan spell in the English premier league with Norwich City and a season in the championship with Middlesbrough. Always entertaining, Kei is also incredibly connected to his communities -- and that was recognized in 2015 when he was named the MLS Humanitarian of the Year.
And today, Kei shares he thought on the game, giving back and mentors -- right here, on The Climb.
For all of our episodes you can visit us at ascentsoccer.org/theclimb.
You can follow The Climb on Twitter (@TheClimbPod) & Instagram (@TheClimbPod), and you can track Adrian down on Twitter at @adrianbradbury.
And remember, reaching the top of the mountain doesn’t really matter, if you’re not paying attention to, and enjoying, the climb.
