the edge of change: matildas player emily van egmond
Welcome to TFAP's The Edge of Change, presented by Nike. A series of conversations with athletes, innovators and designers who are pushing boundaries, creating ideas and advancing change for women in sport.
Emily van Egmond has football in her blood. Born and raised in Newcastle, she was immediately immersed in the sport. Her father represented Australia and it was clear from an early age that Emily would soon follow in his footsteps. Like most female athletes of her generation she played with the boys until well into her teenage years, but that all stopped when the Matilda’s came knocking and she made her debut in 2010 at just 16 years old. Football has taken Emily all over the world. While currently plying her trade for the San Deigo Wave in the US she has had stints with clubs in Australia, Germany, Denmark and the UK and all that experience will absolutely come in handy in 2023. Van Egmond has her sights firmly set on the Matildas and their big task on home soil in July.

When Nicola McDermott was 8 years old, she had a desire to one day be an international High Jumper. After trying her hand at a large number of sports she found herself at Little A's and the already quite tall 8 year old felt right at home. She discovered early on that no woman in australia had ever jumped over 2 metres and that mark quickly became the dream.
At 24 years old, the dream is now a working reality, which is hardly surprising when you come to appreciate the determination, focus and self belief that Nicola possesses. For the past 10 years she has equalled or improved her high jump PB each and every year. On the 18th of April 2021 at the National Champs she jumped 2 metres to become the first Australian woman to soar that high.
She would go on to break the Australian Record again at the Olympics where she cleared 2.02m and finished with a Silver medal. McDermott captured the attention of the world in Tokyo, her unique approach to jumping includes journalling and rating herse…

Vanessa Low knows all too well that change can happen quickly and drastically. At the age of 15 while living in Germany she fell from a train platform, lost both her legs, and spent the next 5 months in hospital fighting for her life. When she woke from her coma the future she had planned for herself had evaporated, the confident sporting teenager was faced with massive uncertainty and fears that could have caused her to retreat from her life and shelve her dreams. But Vanessa did none of those things, she discovered paralympic sport and she thrived.
Vanessa incredibly found "the beauty within the change", and her athletics career took off. She has competed at 3 Paralympics, 2012 and 2016 where she represented her native Germany before making a shift to represent Australia at Tokyo 2020 after marrying Aussie paralympic gold medallist Scott Reardon.

018 ellyse perry [cricket]
Getting to the top of your sport is difficult, very few will ever represent their country on the world stage. Ellyse Perry has done that in not 1, but 2 sports in her illustrious career. Ellyse was 16 when first selected to represent Australia in Cricket, the youngest ever to play Cricket for Australia male or female, 13 days later she pulled on a Matilda's jersey and made her Aussie Soccer Debut. She is the only person ever to have played for Australia in both cricket and Soccer World Cups. In December 2020, the ICC staged a special edition of its annual awards ceremony to recognise the best players of the past ten years. Perry swept all three major female categories to be named the Women's ODI Player of the Decade, Women's T20I Player of the Decade and overall Women's Cricketer of the Decade. Proper GOAT behaviours.

017 sabrina frederick [aflw]
Sabrina Frederick is a force on and off the AFLW field. She is a fierce competitor and a ruthless fighter, skills that she picked up as a kid in country WA, after moving across the world with her family from Brighton, England at just 7 years old. But she found her place on the footy field playing with the boys before joining a women's team at the tender age of 14. Fast forward a few years and Frederick was one of the inagural marquee signings for the Brisbane Lions in Season 1 of AFLW. That season saw her named an AFLW rising star, and in the All-Australian team. A move to Melbourne to play for Richmond in 2020 and a win on the popular reality show SAS Australia has seen Frederick's profile grow and she is passionate about using that profile to help others who face adversity and experience inequality.
Sabrina is about to start AFLW season 6 with Collingwood, a new start, a new club and a new challenge.

Gretel Bueta (formerly Gretel Tippett) is an incredible athlete. Since making her WNBL debut in 2010 at the age of 17 she has packed in plenty of highlights. WNBL seasons, 3 Junior World Championships in basketball, and then a switch to Netball. 2013 saw an opportunity to play with the Queensland Firebirds, get selected in the Australian U21 team and then make a move to the NSW Swifts, before eventually returning home to QLD. The Australian Diamonds call up came in the 2018/2019 season which was a peach of a season for Gretel. She was named in the Super Netball team of the year and in 2019 was awarded the Liz Ellis Diamond, the most prestigious annual award in Australian netball, given to the player judged the best in both domestic and international netball throughout the calendar year.
But potentially her greatest highlight was still to come, Gretel married Niko Bueta in 2020 and they welcomed son Bobby into the world in January this year. Gretel is now back on court with an extra li…

Born and bred in Wagga Wagga, NSW, Quirky played any sport she could find, before representing Australia in touch football, and then making the transition to the Australian Rugby Sevens Team. Quirky is the player that you want on your team in the dying seconds of a gold medal match. She’s meticulous in her preparation and planning, has an engine that will go for days, and an unrelenting drive that comes from somewhere deep within. She’s the teammate who will yell at you to GET UP OFF THE GROUND AND GET BACK IN THE LINE and the first one to pick you up after you’ve scored a try.
Quirky has recently moved over to live in Japan with her husband Matt who plays rugby for the Ricoh BlackRams. And they have very recently welcomed a brand new member of the family, their adorable baby girl Matilda.

008 ellie cole [para-swimming]
Swimmer Ellie Cole is a bloody legend. She’s a 6 time Paralympic champion, a world record holder and an incredible role model. In 2020, Ellie featured in the amazing Netflix documentary, Rising Phoenix. At age three, Ellie’s right leg was amputated above the knee after she suffered a life-threatening sarcoma cancer. Cole is classified in the S9 category in swimming due to her amputation, a classification that also includes swimmers who have joint restrictions in one leg and those with double below-knee amputations. Ellie has a wicked sense of humour, she’s warm and open, and as you’ll hear, has a really beautiful sense of appreciation for life. She shares some incredible insights around performance, and that even when you're the best in the world, it's so much more important to be happy, than to be successful.
