Christine Finnegan: Oh, the Places You'll Go and inspiring the next generation

Episode 5: Christine Finnegan Christine Finnegan has had a love of sport since she was a child. Tennis was her game of choice, where on the court she describes as her happy place. She travelled around the country and played the game she loved, but it was the realisation when she was 15 years old that she wanted to run the tournament rather than play in it. And so, she did. Christine has spent the past 25 years in senior roles across Australian sport at the highest level. Now as CEO of the Tasmanian JackJumpers, she’s helped guide the team to its maiden National Basketball League championship after just three years in the competition. While sport plays a huge part of Christine’s life, the pride in and love for her son sits at the top of her list of her greatest achievements.  TWO AM I Listen Curiously   CREDITS   Hosts: Jack Riewoldt and Shane McCurry   Thanks to our guest Christine Finnegan   To learn more about Christine: Christine on LinkedIn Tasmanian Jack Jumpers on Facebook Tasmanian Jack Jumpers on Instagram Tasmanian Jack Jumpers on YouTube     Links from this episode: Tasmanian Jack Jumpers website Christine Finnegan new Jack Jumpers CEO Jack Jumpers win NBL premiership 2024 Dr Suess ‘Oh the places you’ll go’     Find TWO AM I on social media here: TWO AM I YouTube TWO AM I Instagram  TWO AM I Tik Tok TWO AM I LinkedIn TWO AM I LinktreeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
