Soccer coaches Shelley Armitage and Ellisa Podemski impacting the lives of their sons and their peers through the sport.

They play off each other like they’re sisters, but the two met far more recently as coaches in the Airdrie & District Soccer Association, or Airdrie Football Club (AFC).

They do well to ensure young athletes continue loving the game they themselves have found so much enjoyment in.

This the airdrielife podcast hosted by Britton Ledingham. Here we take you beyond the pages of airdrielife magazine.

Our goal is to share stories with locals in and around Airdrie about extraordinary people who call this city home. Myself and my journalist colleagues meet all kinds of fun, interesting people we get to write about. This podcast is an exclusive opportunity where you can learn more about your fantastic neighbours.

Our intro music was produced by Willy Snypes. You can check him out at willysnypes.com.
