    Jesse Turner: From Rejection to WA State Player

    Jesse Turner is the captain of Swan Districts Football Club, a five-time consecutive WA State representative and a secondary school teacher. Jesse reflects on his football journey from Bassendean Junior Football Club through the Swan Districts development pathway, sharing the setbacks that shaped his career. He opens up about being overlooked, cut from Colts, missing a Colts Grand Final after playing 18 consecutive games and the challenges of competing while unknowingly dealing with anaemia. Rather than walking away, Jesse committed to becoming the hardest worker on the track. That mindset earned him selection in the reserves, a league debut in his first senior year and ultimately established him as one of the WAFL's most consistent midfielders and leaders. Jesse also discusses the influence of coaches throughout his career, including the impact Andrew "Pruey" Pruyn had by believing in him when others didn't. He shares what it takes to balance the demands of semi-professional football with teaching, the sacrifices required to perform at an elite level, his teaching focus on relationships and positive reinforcement and the motivation he draws from his single mum and younger brother. 🎧Spotify – YouTube – Apple High Performance Leaders Whether you're developing leaders, recognising your people or building a stronger team, we’ve got you covered. - 1:1 Leadership Coaching - Team Workshops & Custom Training - Operational Leadership Support - Leadership Recognition Stories 👉 Contact Daniel: https://www.highpl.com.au/
