About me

Is the ball stuck to Rowdy or is it the other way around?
The love for the ball always played a part in Rowdy’s life.

How it all started:
Rowdy starts playing football on the pitch.
But what actually draws his attention were the technical highlights of the game.
At home? He was practising hours and hours of improving his sham movements and endless tries on breaking his juggling record.
But on the pitch? Coaches were angry as were his fellow team mates.
It’s Rowdy’s nature to play with the ball, so when he received the ball, he didnt want to pass it anymore.
He fell in love with the unlimited techniques that are possible with the ball, and he still is!
