Chris Doey

Growing up, I threw myself into every sport I could, and it quickly became clear that sport was my family outside of my family. From personal experience, I know how important it can be to have someone to talk to beyond your home circle, and sport consistently provided that support for me. It taught me social values, life skills that extend far beyond the classroom, and gave me friendships and memories that will last a lifetime.

Now, I’m driven by the desire to offer children the same opportunities and positive experiences that shaped me. In my role within the Sporting Influence Foundation, I oversee the day-to-day operations and manage the various areas and initiatives we run, ensuring that every part of our work contributes to creating meaningful opportunities for young people.

Cameron Osburn

From a young age, I loved being active, playing football and training in martial arts. Sport over the years has given me many fantastic opportunities to experience, learn and build important life skills that still help me achieve my goals now. I see my role in the Sporting Influence Foundation as a crucial chance to support young people gain those important social and life skills through sport/PE so they can build their confidence to seek their dream opportunities in various areas of life.

Hannah Matusewich

I’ve had a passion for sport for as long as I can remember. From a young age, I got involved in every activity I could, quickly realising the impact being active has on both physical and mental wellbeing. With sport always at the forefront of my mind, I’ve worked to put myself in a position where I can share the skills, values, and confidence it gave me with others.

Being part of the Sporting Influence Foundation allows me to do exactly that. I’m excited to help create opportunities for children to engage, grow, and thrive through our inclusive programmes. My hope is to inspire young people to build healthy habits, develop a love for being active, and discover a positive pathway that keeps sport as a meaningful part of their everyday lives.
