Edem loves playing football because it’s more than just a game to them — it’s a passion. It gives him a chance to challenge himself, work as a team, and push their limits. The energy on the field, the thrill of competition, and the feeling of scoring or making a great play is unmatched.
My mom and dad remind me that success isn’t just about talent—it’s about heart, mindset, and how you treat others. That’s the kind of person I want to be, both on and off the field
One of my proudest moments was when I helped my team come back from behind and win a tough game. I stayed focused, gave everything I had, and stepped up when it counted. That moment showed me what I’m capable of under pressure and reminded me why i love the game.
