Early Life
On May 2, 1975 Sandra West and Edward Beckham received a baby boy that they named Beckham, David Beckham. As he grew older, Sandra and Edward knew that he was amazing at soccer, but did they know that he would become one of greatest soccer players of all time? I don't think so... David was the middle child of three. When he started playing for the Ridgeway Rovers he scored over 100 goals in his first season with them. He may have been great but did they know he would become a legend?
