As one of the leading figures in freestyle football, Andrew Henderson is a multiple World Champion performer, whose pioneering influence has projected the sport to mainstream fame. For Andrew, freestyle football was less about medals and trophies, but a way for him to express himself following a life-changing rugby accident that left him unable to walk. When booked for events, he is the perfect entertainer or special guest, as he can blow audiences of all ages away.
Andrew has won every single freestyle football competition he has entered, a staggering reflection of his talent and dedication.

He defended his UK and Ireland title for seven years, the secrets of which he shares with audiences at events. Andrew holds the key to reaching the top, and then staying there.
After witnessing fellow athlete Soufiane Touzani perform on YouTube, Andrew was hooked on freestyle football. He later suffered a horrific broken leg in 2008, leaving him unable to walk and with a long recovery ahead. However, with the accessibility of freestyle football, Andrew was still able to perfect the sport that he loves while making a full recovery. Since then, he has played with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham, completing a childhood dream.
Having retired from competitive freestyle, Andrew founded the UK Football Freestyle Championship, which gives amateur athletes a platform to prove their worth. He has also taught children in Thailand and took part in the Huawei Mate 20 Pro campaign, which awarded a £10,000 bursary to young professionals. From performing at the Olympics opening ceremony and World Cup, to receiving a standing ovation from the Royal Family, Andrew’s thrilling anecdotes will captivate your audience.
