Hear Preston live at free youth workshop at Tweed “BLACK” at the end of the month.

Preston Campbell was once a shy little boy from a small country town who refused to hear that he couldn’t achieve grand things in life.

Preston comes from Tingha, population less than 900, about 30km from Inverell in northern NSW.

He started playing rugby league with the lnverell Hawks and made his NRL – National Rugby League debut with the Gold Coast Chargers in 1998 as a diminutive winger. Since then he has played for the Cronulla Sharks, Penrith Panthers and the Gold Coast Titans.

Preston retired in 2011 after playing a staggering 267 NRL first grade games. Throughout his football years, he has been part of a Premiership winning team, was awarded the Dally M Player of the Year but it is what he has achieved off the field which is just as inspiring. He received the Ken Stephen Medal in 2008, an annual award given to the NRL player to have contributed most significantly to the community.

Since retiring, Preston has become one of Australia’s most influential sporting ambassadors, working tirelessly in the community as an Ambassador, with a huge focus on support individuals, families and communities across a wide range of fields.

Established in 2015, the Preston Campbell Foundation is the genesis of the endeavor and passion of Preston and the team he inspires. The foundation supports Preston’s vision of developing programs and opportunities which inspire and mentor participants to achieve their aspirations and dreams by connecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples with their culture, sense of place and wellbeing.

Preston shares his journey with individuals, families and communities through a variety of learning forums to inspire all of us to ‘live above the line’.
