Athlete Comments & Reviews

“You never stop learning and growing”

“This year I have hit times I haven’t hit for years. You can still always challenge yourself and do better. There’s just no excuse. You can pick up a new sport, have a go at something different.”

“My friends just joined in and came as well!”

“I wanted to get back into that competitiveness and that competition arena and so someone shared about these Masters Games and so I looked into it and I thought that looks really lovely, I would like to try it and I joked around with some past friends and said: I think I’m going to do this Masters Games thing and they were like we’ll get into it too!”

“Sport helps mentally and physically”

“Sport is so important, because it keeps you sharp. I don’t just mean physically but mentally as well. Everybody gets stressed by different things in their life and just being able to get out there and exercise, getting rid of a little bit of that tension can help you mentally as well physically.”
