         The club’s founder, Cameron Harris brings

         passion for movement. From childhood
 BUILDING COMMUNITY ONE STEP AT A TIME  decades of experience and a personal
         memories of being dropped off for sports
         training at Old Parks at 5 years old to years
         spent coaching and playing various sports,
         this lifelong love for movement has shaped
         the club’s ethos. “Exercise should never
         feel like a chore,” he says. “It should be
         something you look forward to, something
         that makes you feel alive. And if we will suffer,
         let’s rather suffer together.”
