We interview Cavalry FC assistant coach Nik Ledgerwood but we don't talk about what's currently happening with the Cavs. This discussion reviews his playing career from growing up in Lethbridge and playing with Lethbridge Croatia men's team when he was a teen, joining the Calgary Storm, his career in Germany and Sweden and his return to Alberta with FC Edmonton. And there's a few questions about his time with the Canadian men's national team as well.
Nik talks about those early years with the Storm which many of us remember fondly. He reviews some of the difficult times he had moving to Germany as a teen and when he started to feel like he fit in with the team. We talk about his first Canada A cap, his only goal for national team, playing in Central America and what the CSA offered the players as a reward for making the "Hex" (the final World Cup qualifying stage for CONCACAF back in the day).
