Delouise Hoeter: Elite Athlete Wellbeing, Family, Respect, Strength of Vulnerability
Description
Delouise has had a different path to NRL than most. Seven years between first grade games and plenty of speed bumps along the way. We speak about what is was like to move countries from Tonga to New Zealand and then from New Zealand to Australia, and what the best tips are for handling that transition. Being held accountable at a young age by his older brother helped him to stay on the right path. Fear of letting others down was one way of staying on track. Young guys in rugby league should make the most out of the education grants that the game provides. How external pressures can be better managed by athletes. Chatting for 5-10 minutes and showing some vulnerability to teammates can take huge weight off your shoulders. The importance of having a good family and being respectful. Sauna chats and much more.
