This week Mitch is joined by Mackay Cutters ‘Head of Football’ Kim Williams to discuss the importance of Junior Athlete Development.

Kim has enjoyed a long and successful career within football, and has recently returned from the United Kingdom where he worked as Head of Academy for the Huddersfield Giants. Before his time in the UK, Kim also led the Mackay Cutters to ISC Grand Final victory as coach in 2013.

With Kim back, it’s a great time for our Juniors to be developing their skills and mindsets within our Cutters Academy!

The Mackay Cutters’ Change the Game mental health initiative and vodcast is a first for rugby league in Australia.

Join QCCS Mackay Cutters CEO Mitch Cook as he talks with various influential community members, navigating his way through topics like mental health, rugby league, community inclusiveness, and wellbeing.

Mitch comes from a background of sports strength and conditioning, with a vast knowledge of the importance a healthy lifestyle plays in a professional sports person’s life, and illuminates the need for mental health support.

It is our goal to raise awareness about mental health & wellbeing, suicide prevention and increase the exposure of local mental health and wellbeing networks.
