Stella Campbell is a fast bowler from Sydney's Northern Beaches. Having found a love for cricket at a later age than most of her peers, she rocketed onto the scene earning her spot in the NSW Breakers, Sydney Sixers & Australian teams. The now 20 year old, had been enjoying the hard work & pursuit of excellence on the pitch before a back injury halted her progress & had her sent for surgery. It's not uncommon to feel lost or threatened when something you love & feel accomplished in is taken away from you, even be it for a short period of time. Whilst recovering in bed, Stella was disconnected from her persona as a cricketer & had to go in search of who she is as a person & craft a purpose that gave her a ‘why' outside of the game.

That season saw history made as the first ball was bowled in the women's domestic T20 competition, at Howell Oval. “(The WBBL in Penrith) was unlike any other feeling I've experienced before playing cricket”, Mikayla said. “To be able to have that experience at Howell Oval, in the first ever game of the Women's Big Bash League, as a 16 or 17 year old…wow, that is something that no one can ever take from me.” Training and playing alongside childhood heroes – such as Alex Blackwell and Leah Poulton – Mikayla was thrust into the professional arena and captivated by the opportunity to learn from some of the world's best athletes. With the rapid rise to professionalism came added pressures and strain on Mikayla's mental health – a weight that amounted in her taking a break from the game in 2017, a decision which proved pivotal in her life. “I gave up something that, deep down, I still loved…I gave up cricket and I think I gave up on myself”, Mikayla said. “If I had never intentionally taken that year off, I would have never had that opportunity to find out who I actually was.” Find out more in the latest episode of the Passion & Perspective Podcast, hosted by Jonathan Robinson-Lees.

Hannah Darlington was raised in Erskine Park and surrounded herself with a myriad of sports from a young age. Support and guidance from her parents ensured that there was more to her upbringing than just cricket, with a deliberate emphasis on socialising with friends and a commitment to education. Being involved with the NSW Breakers and Sydney Thunder squads from her teenage years, Hannah developed a sound understanding of the game and important life skills from her senior players. Experiencing the rise of women’s cricket firsthand, Hannah reflected on the impact that the WBBL had on her career ambitions. “I still remember sitting at Howell Oval for the first WBBL game – I sat there and did the sight screen with Dad and a couple of mates”, Hannah said. “Sitting there watching Sydney Thunder play the Sixers and thinking ‘I want to play for the Thunder’. It was a light-bulb moment.” One year on from that inaugural season, Hannah was a member of the Sydney Thunder squad. Biding her time, Hannah went on to make her debut last summer in WBBL|05. Leading Sydney Thunder with 16 wickets, Hannah claimed the Rookie of the Year title across the league. Further experience with Otago Sparks in New Zealand and a surprise debut with the NSW Breakers capped off a magical season for Hannah. The ability to compartmentalise and focus on the task at hand through a whirlwind season, was the key to the on-field performance according to Hannah. “I do put my success down to the fact that all my focus wasn’t on cricket. I think having the HSC there to keep my mind off cricket probably helped me to have a good season”, Hannah said. “(I would consider) what I need to get done in the present moment, and that was either study for an exam or go and prepare with Sydney Thunder.”

Lisa Griffith was introduced to cricket at the age of 5. Growing up in Bathurst, in central west NSW, sport occupied Lisa’s time, and her love for cricket saw her feature in representative cricket teams through her teenage years. In 2010, whilst juggling Year 12 exams and cricket, Lisa debuted for the NSW Breakers at the age of 18. A rapid rise through the ranks, the selection came as a surprise to Lisa as she took the field with some of her cricketing heroes. “(It’s amazing) when you debut, and you see the calibre of athletes around you and you see what they’re capable of – the likes of Alex Blackwell, Lisa Sthalekar, Ellyse Perry and Alyssa Healy”, Lisa said. “You see the incredible things that they do and how you just want to be able to do that”. Shortly after, Lisa left the game of cricket. The pressures of work, study and being an elite athlete triggered a life-changing decision to leave her city-life behind and Lisa restarted her life on cattle stations in Queensland and the Northern Territory. Whilst many would view it as an uncharacteristic career move, leaving a sports career at the beginning, Lisa holds no regrets for the decision that she made. “I just made this really rash decision that, I’m going to go up north to the outback of Australia and I’m going to get away from here and I’m going to get away from cricket”, Lisa said. “In hindsight, as much as it was a rash decision, it was probably the best one I have ever made and one that has led me down this path of growing as a person”.

Welcome back to the tenth episode of the Remember the Name podcast.  We have a much shorter episode this week, but it's because we were lucky enough to sit down with a very special guest.  Over the last few months, Phoebe Litchfield has cemented herself as not only one of the most promising cricketers in Australia, but as one of the most promising athletes from any sport in Australia, period.  There is a hype around Litchfield that we rarely see with many athletes her age, and the exciting thing is that she has already been living up to it, and more.  It's easy to forget that Litchfield is only 16 when you talk to her, she has the maturity of someone who has been around the traps of cricket for years.  From a viral video of her in the nets that could rival the most experienced of cricketers, Litchfield has gone on to make a name for herself in the Women's Big Bash League for the Thunder, the WNCL for the NSW Breakers and even the Governor General's XI.  She has made such an impact that she was one of five women chosen to play in the Bushfire Cricket Bash with legends of the sport like Ricky Ponting, Shane Warne, Brian Lara and more.  I sat down with Phoebe at the historic North Sydney Oval only moments after the NSW Breakers last ball victory against Tasmania thanks to her teammate Stella Campbell.  We spoke about how she grew up in Orange playing cricket against boys, the balance of studying and travelling to play the sport she loves and of course the amazing recognition of getting to play in the Bushfire Cricket Bash.  Remember, if you enjoy this episode of the podcast, leave a rating and a comment and subscribe to make sure you're the first to catch our episode with some of the best up and coming athletes in Australia.  ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////  Subscribe to SN's YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/2BQiI7p  Catch up with Sporting News Australia on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2zHopmO  Follow @SportingNewsAU on Twitter: https://bit.ly/2FST99M  Like Sporting News Australia on Facebook: https://bit.ly/2KRB4rB  /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Hi everyone. Welcome to episode 4. Osteoporosis is a relevant issue in an ageing population.  Strength training has been shown to assist with improving outcomes with those who have osteoporosis.  The addition of low-load BFR to a strength training routine is that it can provide the user with similar benefits to that of traditional high-load resistance. In an ageing population this has multiple benefits due to the need to not having to lift heavy loads. This podcast reviews the article: Chronic Effect of Strength Training with Blood Flow Restriction on Muscular Strength among Women with Osteoporosis by Silva, J. et al., (2015). Journal of Exercise Physiology Online, 18(4). It covers some fantastic practical outcomes from other studies as well. This article fits well with my interview with Kelly Beahan in "how you do BFR." Kelly has extensive experience as a strength and conditioning coach in a multitude of professional and top tier sports: NRL team Wests Tigers Rehabilitation Coordinator with the Australian Rugby Union (ARU Academy, Mens & Women's Rugby Sevens and the Australian Wallabies) NRL team Cronulla Sharks and a role as Rehabilitation Coordinator followed before roles with Cricket NSW as Strength & Conditioning Coach - developed the NSW Women's Pathway Program,  Head S&C for NSW Breakers and a member of the coaching staff in the inaugural WBBL winning team Sydney Thunder - the first time a female as lead S&C Coach has won a national title. Kelly is urrently preparing Australian Paralympian Sit Ski Athlete Sam Tait (click here to check some of his training) who competes in Alpine Ski and Slalom events for World Cup events scheduled for the Northern Hemisphere Winter and Beijjing 2022 as well as partnering with US based S&C Coach Joel Jamieson as the Australian distributor for the Morpheus Recovery Band.   She also does a lot of injury rehabilitation work so make sure you look her up at the following: Instagram: @itskel and also check out @morpheus_aus Twitter: @kellybeahan   Thanks for listening   Chris

NSW Breakers and Sydney Thunder WBBL coach Joanne Broadbent had Shannon and Fiona in stitches when she took time out to talk to them about plenty of cricket but also life, growing up in Adelaide and to recount some hilarious stories from throughout her life. A seasoned cricket player at the highest level for Australia, Jo now passes on her knowledge and experience - she holds some interesting records - to our greatest top level and upcoming female cricketers in the country. It was a good chinwag that could have gone for hours and ended with some sore cheeks and bellies from so much laughter!

NSW Breakers cricketer - and complete life overachiever - Trent Copeland gets into the nitty gritty of cricket - the absolute mental toughness a player needs; his career path from country cricketer to debuting for Australia at the SCG; the grand scale of success that exists in the game; the current playing crop and state of Aussie cricket; and why he had to stop wearing the gloves. He talks about Phillip Hughes’s death and how it’s affected him and other players as a person and a player and how their instincts are now more welfare-first. Plus there’s fantasy sports - especially the American leagues, his efforts as a teen to play every sport he could, coaching kids and the obstacles his marriage to netballer Kim Green faces as they both manage their playing schedules. He studies, trains, plays, coaches, commentates! But don’t try to take him on in anything, he’s ultra-competitive and you’d probably go down!
