Basketball's Harold Lefty Williams is the only man to make the move from the worst team in the world to the all-conquering Harlem Globetrotters, in the process becoming the first left-handed player to star for the exhibition team. Since retiring, he has gone on to inspire a new generation through his community work. He told the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Caroline Barker his story.
