Given what’s coming up on Monday morning (AEST) with AFA - Selección Argentina facing Spain in the FIFA World Cup final it’s worth reflecting on my memory of commentating the CommBank Socceroos 1994 WC qualifying games featuring the great Maradona 🙏😍

Men’s Health Week | 15–21 June 💙

This Men’s Health Week is especially meaningful for us as we celebrate 10 years of Heartbeat of Football (and Sport).

Across the week, we're delivering 10 activations that bring heart health, nutrition and lifesaving education directly to communities:

📍 3 States
❤️ 4 Sports [Baseball | AFL | Soccer | Rugby League]
🏢 2 Workplaces
🤝 7 Sporting Clubs

Why does men's health matter? Because men continue to experience higher rates of preventable disease, are less likely to seek help early, and remain disproportionately affected by cardiovascular disease—the leading cause of death in Australia.

One of the key goals of Men’s Health Week is to break down barriers that prevent men from accessing healthcare. Encouraging regular check-ups, open conversations, and lifestyle changes can lead to earlier detection of health issues and improved overall well-being.

For 10 years, we've been working to start conversations, encourage proactive health checks, and empower communities with the skills and confidence to save lives.

10 years. 10 activations. Goal: healthier hearts and healthier men.
