Person
Andrew Henderson grew up in Cornwall with a passion for sport. A keen rugby player, in 2008 he suffered a horrific leg break in a championship game that put his career on hold. After doctors told him he may never be able to play sport again, he decided to never give up and less than two years later, at the age of seventeen he became the youngest national champion in the history of football freestyling. Andrew won his first world championship title at nineteen and now holds five world championship titles, making him the greatest freestyle footballer of all time.
