#120 Keegan Hipgrave - Medically retired from the NRL

Season 1, Ep. 120

Keegan is someone who truly inspires me and has one of the biggest hearts I have ever seen.


Growing up on the Gold Coast meant Keegan was in love was surfing and NRL from a young age. As a bigger kid, he thrived in the junior ranks and through high school. Straight after High School he was playing for the Brisbane Broncos under 20s and had a huge career looming.


Keegan made his debut in the NRL in the last game of the 2017 season for the Gold Coast Titans and went on to have a few awesome years. But they came with a cost. Multiple head knocks and overcoming so many adversities. In 2021 Keegan was medically retired from the NRL after a brutal 3rd head knock at just 24 years old.


The thing I love most about Keegan is what he did next. Studying a business MBA at Bond University and making a huge impact on the world through his work at What Ability. , a charity helping disabled children.


A few key topics in this chat
