Trevor Thompson

Trevor Thompson is a birthplace in Glengormley, County Antrim, Ireland. Perhaps a boy ran barefoot through wet grass there in March 1936, learning the weight of his own legs before he ever learned the weight of a ball. Maybe the air smelled of peat smoke and sea salt, and his first breath came sharp and cold. Imagine him looking up at a grey sky, not knowing he would one day carry that place inside his chest when he ran for another.
