About Patrick Bonner

I have had the great privilege of having sport in my life. Having experienced great things in my career, from being World Number 1 for four years in Acrobatic Gymnastics (2001-2004), to helping disabled gymnasts enter their first competition and become coaches themselves. I have loved it all, but most of all, I love seeing how sport can transform people's lives.One thing that resonates with me most is that coaches and mentors in sport play such an important role in developing people. Every interaction is important and every moment of inspiration can light the spark of love for sport in the next generation.Sport can transform lives and sport is for everyone! It is my personal mission in life to bring the joy of sport to as many people as possible in everything I do!
