Jasper Wicks who has been playing football since he was six has always wanted to play in goal.

He has now been signed, after being scouted, to play the season for Bristol City and in addition to training seven hours a week, plays matches all across the country on a Sunday.

To date he has played Arsenal, Manchester United (and won!) Leicester City, Fulham and is due to play Chelsea soon.
