During the AFLConnect "Coaching Through the Decades" event earlier this year, attendees gained a unique insight into Dustin Martin's formative years at Richmond. Reflecting on Martin’s retirement earlier in the year, Mark Williams shared his experiences in supporting Dusty’s development both as a player and as a person. He emphasized the critical role of building trust in relationships before offering advice or guidance - a principle that holds true for fostering development in both business and sport.
Over the past 9 years, the AFLW has seen significant progress, but the world of women's competitive football was quite different before the professional era. At our latest AFLConnect event, Natalie Wood, Essendon Football Club's AFLW Senior Coach and a pioneer in women’s football, shared her insights on the league's origins and how player opportunities and perceptions have evolved.
