I'm an ex- Keeper Myself, back in the 70s when I was 13 I started Beating and when I left school at 15 was offered a job with accomodation, very little money but loved it.When I wanted to move on I was one of 350+ other lads going for the same post I got it. Today the competition is probably greater so the more contacts you have and the more recommendations you can get along with whatever college training is available will stand you in good stead. The moneys still crap but as has already been said when your young and single the moneys not what matters . Good Luck!
