From strength → control → power ⚡
Josh working through the full rehab spectrum today.
Dynamometer testing, single leg strength, reactive balance, and plyometrics, this is how we work towards building strong, resilient knees.

If you’re struggling with knee issues, it might be time to get it assessed and managed properly 💪

🏉 FIRST STEP FOOTY TEAM – COMMUNITY SELECTED LINEUP 👀

We asked… you delivered… and now we’ve got a team that’s equal parts talent and absolute chaos 😂

DOWN BACK 🛑
Jai “Mr Football” – Doesn’t matter the code… soccer, AFL, backyard rules… this bloke just gets it done. Utility defender who can bring the offside rule into the AFL game.

THE ENGINE ROOM 🔥
Bruce “Biscuits” – Brrrruuuuuccceeee. This man has Pavlov’d the entire clinic into handing him a biscuit every visit. Midfield dominance powered by shortbread. Elite tank. Selection committee didn’t even hesitate… just pointed at the centre square and told one of our EPs Jack “wing mate.”

THE WING 🪽
Sam “Lanky” – Covers more ground than our physios on a double-booked day. Endless running, always finding space… and would 100% ask for his GPS data post-game, question it, then say he could’ve gone harder. Still quietly thinks he could’ve played AFL.

HALF FORWARD 🎯
Mark “Gunners” – Arsenal through and through. Soccer coach turned goal sneak. If it’s inside 50, he’s either scoring… or appealing for a penalty.

INTERCHANGE 🔄

Gail “Sybil” & David “Basil” – The Fawlty Towers pairing. Zero discipline, maximum entertainment. Would argue with the coach mid-game and somehow still win best on ground for vibes.

Jack “Bazlenka” – Blonde ✔️ Headband energy ✔️ Loves Bailey Smith ✔️
Comes on, changes the game up forward, doesn’t explain how. Pure X-factor. Might take a hanger, might take a selfie mid-play.

Donna “Pay Lady” – Most important selection on the list. Controls the pays, controls the club. Also Kaleb’s mum… so let’s just say selection committee was very aligned this week 💸😂

Ray Ray “The Zebra” – Zebras are known for their stripes confusing the opposition… and Ray Ray’s bringing that same energy. Hard to read, always in the right spot, and somehow makes everyone else look second-guessing themselves. Also keeps Kaleb accountable for not running enough 😅

Built by the community, backed by banter… 😂

A very exciting day for 3 of our incredible team members! Ellen, Calvin & Michelle graduated their Master degrees in Exercise Physiology. We are so proud of you guys and are lucky to have you as part of the First Step Team! 💪

Good people, good moments 🤝

Kaleb worked for the Gold Coast Suns at AFL Gather Round - Suns vs Swans and caught up with Mitch, who’s always behind the scenes making it happen on banner duties for the Gold Coast Suns.

Plenty goes on that you don’t see on TV, but it’s exactly that level of performance and injury management we’re continuing to bring back home to our community in Strath 💪

Gather Round clearly got to us… because somehow we’ve ended up naming a First Step team 👀”

A few names picked themselves…
A few are already under review 😅

Still got spots left though:

• 1 Forward
• 2 Wings
• 1 Defender
• + 5 on the bench

👇 Drop a name, give them a position & defend your pick

We’ll take the best (and most questionable) calls…
and announce the final 23 👀
