Manage episode 288882918 series 1038823
Not many people can say they captained their team to the first gold medal ever given out in an Olympic Sport. Bridgette Ireland can. She captained the Australian women’s waterpolo team in the Sydney 2000 Olympics, the first time the Sport was played at the prestigious games, winning gold to top it off. She tells Mitch and Seb on The Sporting Post about the dynamics and chemistry that make a successful sports team, her own journey to the Olympics, and a final second goal that led to a gold medal.
