Straight From The Off - With Ben Garrity

Straight From The Off welcomes Ben Garrity to the Podcast. After representing Liverpool County FA sides at various ages Ben attracted interest from Chester FC. He would then return to the amatuer scene and play for Red Rum and Warbreck FC in the Liverpool County Premier League. After impressing with those sides, Ben moved to up and coming team Lower Breck FC. Lower Beck won an unpresidented quadruple with Ben at the heart of midfield and also went the season unbeaten. Again, Ben caught the eye of other sides and Warrington Town was his next destination. Ben adjusted to the step up very well and it wasn’t long until the pro clubs were watching. A move to the football league with Blackpool FC saw Ben realise his dream of being a Pro footballer. Ben explains his love for his Sunday league side Oyster and how difficult it was to leave amateur football when signing a contract with Warrington. Ben now plays for Port Vale after a season long loan spell at Oldham Athletic. He tells us his favourite goals, games and all about the lads he shared a pitch with and played against throughout those times.
