Player Profile 4. Simon Baker - Defender [Captain]

Simon 'Scoop' Baker

Captain fantastic! Simon, along with Christy McElligott and Oisin Jordan, founded the IAFA in 2011 and has led the Association to unimaginable heights over the course of the past 3 years. Passionate, driven and charismatic, Simon's qualities are evident both on and off the football pitch. Courageous, ambitious and energetic, Simon wears the green jersey with immense pride and embodies all that the IAFA represents. An accomplished defender, Simon dreams of one day scoring a goal for the IAFA. Simon has ventured further up the pitch in recent fixtures but has quickly returned to the comfort of the backline complaining of nausea, headaches and nosebleeds when in the opponents half. Simon is looking forward to leading the IAFA squad at the Amputee Football World Cup in Mexico and to infinity and beyond in the years to come.
