    Gary Dicker, Crown Legacy FC Head Coach

    On this episode we talk with Gary Dicker, Crown Legacy FC Head Coach. Gary was appointed as Crown Legacy FC’s second head coach in November 2024, bringing with him a wealth of experience from a 15-year professional playing career and a recent stint coaching in the Premier League 2 with Brighton & Hove Albion’s U-21s. In this conversation, Gary reflects on his path from player to coach, the mentors and moments that defined his football philosophy, and how he’s translating those lessons into the Charlotte FC system.
