S3 E09 The Person and the Footballer with Jake Jervis

On this episode we speak to player care consultant, counsellor, mentor and aspiring coach Jake Jervis. Jake is an ex professional footballer, having had a successful career that included spells at Plymouth Argyle, Luton Town and Ross County as well as time in India, Finland and Turkey.

Like most ex pro's, Jake picked up a wide range of skills and attributes from football. But Jake is more than just a footballer. He is a passionate, family - orientated individual that wants to support the youth of today wherever he can. It's easy to see how Jake's skills combined with his beliefs and passions have lead him down the career path he is currently on.

On the episode we draw on Jake's playing career to learn how this has influenced the man he is today and all the work he is doing to give back in the youth sport space.
