Kevin Baxter: How former Galaxy player Eddie Lewis became a soccer training tech innovator
LOS ANGELES — Eddie Lewis played his final soccer game at the age of 36, old for a midfielder but young for just about everybody else. So with more than half a lifetime ahead of him, he had plenty of time to build a new career.
Yet like many former players, all he really knew was soccer.
"A lot of players retire with quite a bit of soccer experience. It almost becomes somewhat of a detriment in the sense that they haven't gained a lot of other experiences along the way," he said.
Lewis had a lot of soccer experience, having played 399 professional games in a 14-year club career spent mainly in England
