Matt Hammond works in one of the most patriarchal sectors in sports, the sports betting industry. He is determined to use his privilege as a young, white, straight, cis-gender man to improve not only his organisation and the sector but also to help shift attitudes about women by standing up for women's rights.
Matt is a great example of someone who is privileged yet is intentionally and continuously learning about gender equity, putting his learning into action, and then doing some more learning.
His key advice? For more male athletes to stand up for equality, for more men to stop and really listen to women and that it’s ok to stuff up, as long as you keep going.
