The mentality of a soccer goalkeeper and entrepreneur. In this podcast episode, we speak with Abdel Rodrigues, soccer goalkeeper, trainer, and founder of Kronis. We discuss USA soccer, the immigrant mindset, and youth sports.
In Abdel’s incredible journey, one thing remains the same–passion. You’ll hear from Abdel the story of how, at a young age, he fell in love with the game of soccer and, ultimately, the position of soccer goalkeeper. Since then, he has never lost his passion for it. Now, Abdel makes his living training soccer goalkeepers, playing the sport he loves, and selling soccer goalkeeper gear.
As a result of Abdel’s passion, mindset, and work ethic, as well as our own interest in the game of soccer, we are excited to chat with him on The Sports Backdrop Podcast.
