Page 12 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JULY 16, 2021 The Captain M By The Old Sachem, Bill Stewart ost of you know I really like soccer although I never had a chance to play the game. My two older sons, Will and Bob, both were captains of the Saugus High teams during their school years, so I got to know the game well. I watch the Premier League in England on a somewhat regular schedule on TV; I’m now watching the UEFA Europa Cup tourney and I will follow the World Cup closely. The tournament starts with one or two teams from each European country; the United Kingdom includes teams from England, Scotland and Wales. One of the heroes of this year’s Europa Cup is Harry Edward Kane, captain of the English team. Kane was born and raised in the London borough of Waltham Forest on July 28, 1993. He started his career at six years old with the Ridgeway Rovers; he is from a family that worshiped the game of what is known throughout the world as football but called soccer in the USA. The family was fans of the local team, the Tottenham Hotspurs, but Kane had a chance to start with a youth team sponsored by Arsenal, known as the Arsenal Youth Academy. The Premier League teams sponsor teams starting with the very young up to the level below the league team. Kane was released from the Arsenal Academy at VACCINE | FROM PAGE 2 of Longmeadow, Deutsches Altenheim of West Roxbury, and Elizabeth Seton Residence and Marillac Residence of Wellesley. The network is the first long-term care provider group in Massachusetts to issue a vaccine mandate for its employees. “Our top priority is always the health of our residents and our staff,” said Adam Berman, President and CEO of Legacy Lifecare. “With over 323 million doses administered in the United States, the COVID-19 vaccines have been proven to be both safe and effective. After consulting with experts and careful consideration, we feel strongly that requiring staff to be vaccinated is the most important action we can do to ensure the safety of our eight years old because the manager thought he was a bit chubby and not very athletic. He had a trial with the Hotspurs youth but was not successful, so he returned to Arsenal Academy. At 11 years old he tried out for the Watford and was selected. After a game with the Hotspurs youth team, Kane was given another chance to join the Hotspurs youth. He became a midfielder, which is primarily a defensive position, and later was moved to an attacking midfielder. Starting out he did not stand out, was rather small and somewhat slow in running, but they held on to him, realizing that he took well to instruction and constantly improved his game. At 15 he had a growth spurt, making him stronger and taller, and became a member of the under 16 club. He played in the Copa Chivas tournament in Mexico and the Bellinzona tournament in Switzerland, scoring three goals for England. On his 16th birthday he signed a scholarship contract with Tottenham. Moved up to the under 18 team, Kane scored 18 goals and was sometimes on the bench for the Premier League team. Kane signed a professional contract with the Hotspurs and was loaned to the Leyton Orient club to increase his game, then was brought up to the Hotspurs near the end of the season. On August 25, 2011, Kane made his first appearance for Tottenham. He was subsequently loaned long-term care communities.” Chelsea Jewish Lifecare and other Legacy Lifecare affiliates plan to implement the mandate once the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) grants final approval of one of the three vaccines. Receiving the COVID-19 vaccine will be a condition of employment for all staff members and volunteers, with exemptions limited to religious and medical reasons. This is consistent with the network’s approach to the flu vaccine. Since last December when vaccines were first made available to health care workers, Chelsea Jewish Lifecare and Legacy Lifecare have conducted an extensive education campaign titled “Superheroes Saving Lives”. Over 75% of the approximately 1800 employees throughout the Legacy Lifecare netout to Millwall on January 1, 2012, for the remainder of the season, scoring nine goals in 27 games, and was selected as Millwall’s Young Player of the Year. His scoring enabled Millwall to forestall the threat of relegation. For those of you not familiar with the Premier League, each year the three lowest placed teams in the Premier League are relegated to a lower-level Championship and the top two teams from the lower-level Championship promoted to the Premier League, with an additional team decided by competition. The additional team is promoted after a series of playoffs involving the third, fourth, fifth and sixth placed clubs. His first start for the Hotspurs was on April 7, 2014, and he scored his first Premier League goal in the 59th minute against Sunderland. He was a second half substitute until a home game against Stoke City. Kane became the captain of the team England in April of 2015 and scored 25 goals in 38 league games, a goal in the Football Association (FA) Challenge Cup and two goals in Europa. During his 11 seasons up to 2020, Kane scored 166 goals in 242 games, 11 FA Cup goals in 16 games, six goals in League Cup play and 38 goals in Europa games in 63 games. With the English National Team, Kane, who is the captain, has scored 35 goals in 58 games; his best year was 12 goals in eight games in the 2018 season. Kane scored his first hat trick, three goals in a contest, on October 25, 2015, to lead work are currently vaccinated, achieving the national goal for long-term care providers. To further prepare for this mandate, senior leadership will continue to offer comprehensive information about vaccine safety and efficacy, including encouraging employees to ask questions and addressing concerns on a one-on-one basis. In addition, all campuses will offer on-site vaccination clinics to facilitate meeting this important requirement. The organization thanked its employees for their incredible dedication, loyalty, courage, and compassion. “COVID-19 has been devastating, especially for those of us who care for the most vulnerable,” said Berman. “I am so proud of our staff and how they have persevered throughout these challengthe way to defeating Bournemouth. He was named Player of the Month for the third time in March 2016, after scoring five goals in four games. Kane was the leading scorer for the 2016 season and won the Golden Boot Award, helping Tottenham to a third-place finish and a UEFA Champions League qualification. In the 2016-2017 season, Kane was a runner-up for the Golden Boot Award and named as the Premier League Player of the Year. That season he signed a new contract with Tottenham that keeps him with the team until 2022. The 2017-2018 season was a record breaker for Kane. He was named Premier Player of the Month for the fifth time in his career. Kane became the record holder for scoring 39 goals in a calendar year. He suffered injuries in the 2018-2019 season but was able to return for a Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund for a noscore tie that gave Tottenham an aggregate score of 4-0 and propelled them to the quarterfinals, which they lost. In the 2019-2020 season, he scored twice in the first game of the season against Ashton Villa. He suffered a hamstring injury that kept him out of games, then the COVID-19 pandemic ended the season early. The 2020-2021 season was another record for Kane. In a 5-2 win over Southampton, he scored the fifth goal after assisting Son Heung-min to four goals, which made him the first player in league history that assisted the same teammate four times in a sining times. They are the real heroes in this story.” Berman noted that the organization did not make the vaccine mandate decision lightly. “Simply put, implementing this mandate is the only way we can fully protect our staff and our residents,” said Berman. “I absolutely believe it’s the right decision for us.” About Chelsea Jewish Lifecare Chelsea Jewish Lifecare is redefining senior care and re -envisioning what life should be like for those living with disabling conditions.
