The Sports Bubble has discussions with the talented people having fantastic experiences and doing amazing things in the sports industry. 

In this episode, we kick off our Olympic-themed month of episodes by speaking with the CEO of Softball Australia, David Pryles. Softball is back in the Olympics for Tokyo after being overlooked since Beijing 2008, and our Softball team was the first group of athletes to arrive on the ground in Tokyo!

We explore David's time at Cricket Victoria and Melbourne City FC in sales-related and partnership roles, the benefits of transitioning between similar roles in different sports, how he manages to get a handle on his major responsibilities, how working for an Olympic sport impacts how a sport is run and what it has been like for Olympic sports over the past 18 months.
