From the Playground to the Pitch is a must-read for any fan of football or for anyone who is interested in the story of a successful person who overcame the odds to achieve their goals. Terry's story is an inspiration to us all.

Here is an excerpt from the book:

When I was a kid, I used to dream of playing football for England. I would spend hours kicking a ball around in the park, dreaming of scoring the winning goal in a World Cup final.

I never thought that my dream would actually come true. I was just a kid from a working-class family in London. But I had a dream, and I was determined to make it happen.

I started playing football at a young age. I played for my local team, and then I was scouted by Chelsea. I joined Chelsea's youth academy when I was 14 years old.

I worked hard at my game, and I quickly progressed through the academy ranks. I made my debut for the first team when I was 17 years old.

I was nervous at first, but I soon settled into the team. I played in the Premier League for 19 seasons, and I won five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, and the Champions League.

I also played for England on 64 occasions. I was captain of England for 10 years.

My journey from the playground to the pitch was not easy. There were setbacks and disappointments along the way. But I never gave up on my dream.

I hope that my story inspires you to never give up on your dreams, no matter how difficult they may seem.

From the Playground to the Pitch is available now from all good booksellers.
