Teenage Kicks: Ben Elliott (01.06.2020)
What’s your earliest memory of playing football?
My earliest memory of playing football is playing with my brother [former Chelsea youngster Kit] and mum in the back garden. My mum would often go in goal and me and my brother would take shots with the ball, usually somehow ending up in one of the neighbours´ gardens!
Sometimes we would go to the park and play in the cage with lots of other people and that definitely helped me improve my first touch and close control because the space was very tight.
Where did you play your football before Chelsea?
Before signing at Chelsea, I played with my local Sunday league team Kingstonians for two years between the ages of six and eight. It was a lot of fun and that was when I realised how much I loved playing football.
Did you play in any other positions as a youngster?
From Under-9s through until Under-13sm, I would always rotate between playing central midfield and centre-back. I liked playing centre-back because we were often told to try and play out from the back, which meant that I got a lot of the ball and could try to affect the game by either passing forward or stepping in with the ball. It also helped me to learn the defensive side of the game.
However, after a year or two of playing 11-a-side football, I started to play predominantly in central midfield and then moved further forward into the number 10 role, which allows me to try and affect the game by creating chances and scoring goals. All in all, I enjoyed playing centre-back but I do prefer playing further forward.
