The Amazing Ollie Wilson...the story of a young man embracing the challenge
Oliver Wilson is 11-years old and has been diagnosed with the Becker version of Muscular Dystrophy. Well known Australian journalist and author, Peter Rees is Ollie's grandfather. Here, Peter speaks with the Radio Show about his grandson embracing the challenge. Ollie recently played his last game of cricket, a game he loves dearly but is determined to continue involvement in the game on some level. With the help of the Eastlake Cricket Club and ACT Cricket, the Ollie Wilson Perpetual Trophy will now be awarded annually. In this honest and loving chat, Peter speaks of the pride of his grandson and of the family, community and cricket love for a spirit that is rewarded each day...and of the Australian cricket team and Lenny Pascoe helping out.
