00:00You're looking at some highlights of goalkeeper Anton Williams. He's one to
00:04look out for having come through the grassroots system of local football. He
00:08started playing at the age of 11 and has played for Presentation San Fernando
00:13Police FC as well as the under-15, under-17 and under-20 national teams
00:18where he earned a few man-of-the-match performances. Now he plays for Evolution
00:23FC and he's hoping to make it to the big leagues.
00:26My background grew up in Enterprise, Chagonas. Most would say it's not the safest area to be but to me, I call it home.
00:33Simply because I was exposed to all of the elements of Enterprise, whatever
00:39elements in your opinion that may be. To me, I use it as motivation in a way. It
00:44may sound weird but the motivation I get from it is that I don't, I can choose
00:49what I want to do. So far he has made his mother proud. I am very proud of him. I
00:54know that he worked very hard to be where he is. William says he is focused
01:01on making it by concentrating on his responsibility. I don't let anything I
01:06do go to my head. Whether I save a penalty, whether I make a nice pass, whether I save a shot from an important player, it wouldn't matter to me.
01:13The only thing that matters to me is making sure that my team gets the victory, make sure that we
01:18are able to share our influence around the country. That's all that matters to me.
01:22His club Evolution FC is regarded as one of the best in Central after winning the
01:27Republic Cup national title. I'm considered short for most goalkeepers, number one.
01:33Because of that, people really cannot undermine me because of the height but I
01:39train my legs to be able to reach high. Thus far, Williams has beaten the odds and
01:43moving forward, he's hoping to make the senior national team. Sergio Dufour, TV6 Sport.
