Walker Zimmerman of the US National Team and Nashville SC joins Soccer Resilience® as the sports mindset agency’s first Ambassador.
Walker has played in over 160 games in Major League Soccer for FC Dallas, LAFC and Nashville SC and was named 2020 MLS Defender of the Year and the Best XI (was a 2019 MLS All-Star & Best XI as well). On the field, he’s a strong, consistent center back who has a knack for scoring goals, but it’s his character, heart and desire to inspire and help others that’s most impressive. As he does on all of his teams, Walker Zimmerman makes Soccer Resilience® so much better!
“Having a strong mindset is crucial for all players. It needs as much focus as the technical, tactical and physical components. I’m proud to represent and advance the aspirations of Soccer Resilience® to lift players, coaches and others. At the pro level, the margins between players can be so small that exercising your mentality can lead to a significant advantage.”
Along with sharing his tips, experiences and stories about resilience on social media, Walker will speak with and mentor teams, clubs, and organizations. To book Walker or to hear more about how Soccer Resilience® can fuel your group, contact wells@soccerresilience.com.
