A lifelong basketballer from VIC with a bold personality and deep love for the game.  Calvin has played since childhood and has attended international training camps. He’s passionate about teamwork and communication, saying, “You don’t need ears to play ball, just hands and heart.” Calvin’s advice to young Deaf athletes is to find a team that supports and learns with you: “If they don’t want to communicate, get out of there. Find people who do.” With dreams of one day playing in the NBA, Calvin’s determination and energy on and off the court are compelling.
