He can both review your existing capabilities and your plans for expansion / modernisation, and inform your grant applications for technical growth.

John has worked with over 50 sports at the national level both in Australia and internationally, so has an extensive industry and sport specific knowledge and understanding. Nevertheless, he comes from a family background heavily involved in professional golf, and has worked from grass roots amateur players and their support programs through to major international professional tournament winners. He has consulted to the R&A and Augusta National, and Golf Associations across the Asian area.
