    Earl Eddings - Former Chairman of Cricket Australia, Executive Chairman HIT IQ

    Earl Eddings played 272 games of Premier cricket for Northcote and North Melbourne CC’s and soon moved into administration as President of North Melbourne – at one point he was President, Coach and major sponsor of the Club all at the same time! He subsequently joined the Cricket Victoria Board, became Deputy Chairman and was subsequently elected to the Board of Cricket Australia for 13 years, including a term as Chairman which included guiding the organisation through the aftermath of “sandpaper gate “ in South Africa and the traumatic period of COVID-19 that almost ruined Australian cricket financially. We discuss all of the above including Earl’s personal playing career, his thoughts around the growth of women’s cricket, the potential privatisation of the BBL/WBBL competitions and also discuss the issue of concussion management through the lens of HIT IQ and the benefits of the development of technology in mouthguards that are now being widely used in a range of sports both here in Australia and globally.  Hit IQ website

    Helen Nolan, CEO The Shane Warne Legacy

    Following the tragic death of Australian sporting icon Shane Warne, his family and close friends, including Helen, established “The Shane Warne Legacy” that provides free health checks for all Australians.   Helen previously worked as Shane’s PA for 15 years and during a sometimes emotional discussion we hear some of Helen’s fond memories of Shane, how they first met and their “brother /sister” type relationship, notwithstanding she worked for him. The Shane Warne Legacy has some wonderful partners and with this support has now provided free health checks to over 360,000 Australians and along the way has assisted in saving lives – we hear of some heartfelt letters of thanks to Helen from some people who have taken the test and just in the knick of time for their long-term health! Truly a heartfelt chat with Helen that I am sure everyone will enjoy!       Shane Warne Legacy website
