183: Eddie Betts (Part A)

Eddie was a creative force on the football field at every turn - just the lazy four goals of the year - but Eddie's warm, joyful energy off the field matches his magnificence on it. But, he is more than a former footballer. He is a father. Husband. Author. TV show creator. Under 11's footy coach, and so, so much more.  The 350 game, 640 goal champion's journey is a remarkable story of resilience, triumph and positive spirit and his unwavering determination to stamp out racism in football and sport is creating generational change that is ensuring a future where unity, respect and inclusivity prevails.  Eddie and his beautiful family have just launched the Eddie Betts Foundation, which aims to create generational change, and amongst many objectives the newly formed foundation aims to make a positive impact on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Communities through sport and education.
