Thanks to Ben Davis and team at Sports Entertainment Network for providing a platform to generate much needed funding support for our elite athletes - we are calling on Australia to invest and invest now. We ask every professional sporting team to consider investing $1,000 from every playing contract valued in excess of $250,000 into the WattleNest to help fuel our current and emerging National talent. We also ask every Major Corporate sponsor of a professional sporting team to consider investing 1% of their sponsorship budget into the WattleNest. It's not ok for our talent to be living below the poverty line and by making such an achievable investment we will make a difference and disrupt the funding model in Australia now and forever. Watching Ben do some basic calculations on the back of an envelope in studio, we could quickly reach over $1,000,0000 in much needed funds. Come on Australia - it's time to act and unleash the power of sport. Join us on our journey to athlete empowerment.

Dave Donaghy - can we call out to Brisbane Broncos to be our first professional sport partner??

A great initiative to support our Aussie athletes. Hopefully our professional athletes get behind WattleNest on this challenge.
