Seeing action with 10 clubs in a career that spans over a decade, Whitecaps FC forward Tosaint Ricketts has seen his fair share of the world. From playing in Finland and Romania to Turkey and Israel, Ricketts’ experience spans much farther than his native Canada’s borders and his impact is felt far beyond the pitch.
“It goes back to when I was younger,” Ricketts explained. “If the community didn’t help me, if teammates, parents and people in the soccer community didn’t help me get through the struggles I had as a kid, I probably wouldn’t be where I am today.
