Age is just a number, and for Alan Camsell that couldn't be more true. At 89, the Penrhyn Bay Strollers' goalkeeper, and his teammates, believe he's the oldest shot-stopper in the football league.
And now he's been nominated (提名) in Sky Bet's search for Real Football No.Is. The UK's No.I betting app is on the hunt for those at grassroots level who have made a special contribution to the beautiful game.
Alan says,"My wife told me when we had our first grandchild in our forties,'It's alright being old, but don't look old and don't behave old.'I've taken that to heart. Problems are there to overcome. I've had hip and knee replacements, cataract operations, and had a pacemaker put in just a few months ago. I've also got a hernia, but I just play on."
The golden-age goalkeeper's exploits on the football field have attracted TV coverage worldwide, and his record of the oldest shot-stopper remains unmatched. But incredibly, Alan didn't have the chance to be a goalkeeper until he was 39.
"I've always followed the game, but the family business meant working weekends. So when evening five-a-side came around, I jumped at the chance to play," he says.
While most players wear shin pads (护腿) and the occasional knee support, Alan has to go the extra mile to ensure he can play pain free during the football matches for his Welsh-based
club.
Despite his health problems, Alan insists he's got no intention of hanging up his boots any time soon. He adds,"I'll play on forever and I've got no other plans. As long as the team's prepared to put up with me, I'll keep going."
4. What do we know about Alan?
A. He took over the family business at a very young age
B.He stepped over physical barriers to be a footballer.
C. He gave up his career owing to his various diseases.
D. He became a skilled goalkeeper when he was a teenager
