We are more than just athletes. Sport affords us the platform to create meaningful change in the lives of the community around us. We just have to decide how we want to do it. This is our foundation.

I never really knew what it meant or paid it any attention. Finally, after being removed from playing football, I understood. Sports can be a springboard to bigger and better things and are not necessarily the end of the journey.
