COVID in Sport: E9 - Head on
37m
Our most emotional, raw and honest episode yet.
Former President of Darts Australia Kelvin James recounts his greatest challenge.
After being rushed to hospital last September, Kelvin was booked in the next day for surgery to remove a large benign brain tumour.
Doctors told him to say his goodbyes before the operation.
This podcast is as much about learning how a national sporting organisation has dealt with the challenges of COVID, as it is learning how one individual has dealt with the challenges of life.
After tacking the COVID phenomenon ‘head on’ in the Darts Australia role, Kelvin details the challenges of keeping the sport going, the financial impacts, volunteers and states banding together, online darts tournaments, his public resignation letter, personal health issues, the support from the industry, his recovery & much more!
