Every football player has one dream and that dream is to lift the World Cup trophy above their heads. Ask any footballer and they will tell you that while playing in the parks or in their back gardens, they always visualise themselves scoring the winning goal in the world cup as they smash the ball between their man-made goals made out shoes or any object that resembles a goal post.

One non-league footballer who has the chance of winning the world cup this year is none other than the non-league maestro himself Jamie Vardy. This man has worked his way from the non-league all the way to the Premier League – from Stockbridge Park Steels, F.C Halifax, Fleetwood Town to Leicester City.
One thing that Jamie has always done, whether it be slugging it out on muddy pitches in the conference or on the biggest stage at Old Trafford, is the ability to score tons of goals. He has an incredible work ethic and he chases down every single ball, even if the odds are out of his favour.
Jamie was part of the famous Leicester City side that won the English Premier League against all the odds, in fact the exact odds were 5000/1 before the first ball was kicked that season. No one gave them a chance, in fact no one should have given them a chance. Leicester had just survived in the campaign before and just clung to their Premier League status. They came into the season as one of the favourites to get relegated but as we all know they turned the odds on their heads and put many bookies out of business by winning the Premier League.
Jamie was an integral part of that season as he and Riyad Mahrez ran riot that season scoring and assisting goals against any opposition they came up against. Vardy even ended the season as the second highest goal scorer that year with 24 goals – a couple goals behind Sergio Aguero.
The next fairy tale for the former F.C Halifax player is to go all the way and win the World Cup Trophy with England. If England win the world cup, Jamie will most certainly be given the leading role in a Hollywood movie in the future. The Jamie Vardy story has most certainly given non-league footballers the opportunity to dream big.
