When I took on the role as general manger my aim was to create a motivated and happy workforce that would enable our team to progress in their careers.  I am thrilled to be named on the shortlist however, I would like to recognise the hard work of the talented team of sport specialists we employ, all of whom have played a pivotal role in making SportStars a success.”
