Transitioning to life after sport with a masters in football

Retired Hawthorn premiership player Clinton Young experienced the highs and lows of one of the most physically demanding sports on the planet. From being the Hawk’s leading possession getter in the first half of the 2008 Grand Final to suffering a serious ankle injury early in the third quarter, which was the start of a wretched run of injuries. Clinton transferred to Collingwood for the 2013 season and ended up retiring in 2015, at the age of 29. During his career Clinton did a range of short courses to build his off field skills but could never settle into anything long term until an opportunity to coach presented itself.
