He tells us how he grew up in a family where sport was a part of everyday life. From playing football, rugby and riding his beloved BMX bike in his school years, Steve's competitive spirit and passion for elite sport continued into his higher education where he played rugby league and became club president. Entering the world of work slowed down Steve's sporting activities however he reconnected with movement through staff football, running and playing squash. As a dad and a husband, he now loves running, cycling, padel, paddle boarding and being outdoors.
The Physical Literacy tool allows us to see how each of us experiences physical activity, how we think about it, how it makes us feel, and how we connect with it at different points in our lives.
These real-life examples are a powerful way to show that our relationship with being active may change over time, but its impact on our wellbeing is constant. Physical Literacy is a great way to understand our personal journeys and see just how important physical activity is for everyone.
