Athlete Comments & Reviews
“Sport brings people together at World Masters Sport events”
That’s what it’s all about, spending time with your old mates, making new mates. Just let sport bringing people together
“I’m positive about life again!”
I’m really proud of myself I was able to get myself back into a place in sport where I was, and be positive about life again. At the age of 62 right now, I’m so blessed. Beyond, I mean, I get emotional.
“Sport gives you that united feeling”
“At some point sport doesn’t become team, it actually becomes family. It really is a united kind of feeling to come together to sweat, train and work hard for a goal and then be able to do that goal together creates that beautiful kind of team spirit and camaraderie that you can’t share in the office space or in daily life and that’s the beauty of what sport does.”
