Joe Lewis (born October 6, 1987) is an English goalkeeper who plays for Norwich City. Following a knee injury to Paul Crichton, schoolboy keeper Joe Lewis was handed a first team squad number 28 and a place on the bench for victories over Crystal Palace and Reading in the 2003-04 season.
Joe has been with the Canaries from a very early age and was initially spotted by Colin Watts, the Club’s Youth Recruitment Officer. Joe presently stands at 6'5". He was formerly a student at Bungay High School. Joe is also a fine cricketer and like other sportsmen in the past has had to make the difficult decision of which discipline to pursue. He chose the football path and was rewarded by being called up for England Schoolboy sides and most recently has held down a place in the Canaries’ Academy under-19 squad.
During the summer of 2006, Nigel Worthington announced that he would be looking to send Lewis out on loan for the 06-07 season in order to enable him to gain first-team experience. However, the sale of Robert Green to West Ham meant that Lewis became second choice goalkeeper at Carrow Road. An injury to Lewis then prompted the loan signing of Lee Camp.
