2021 Game Committee

Jodie created the Wudzy App and dreamt up the idea of the Wudzy AFL Basketball Game. Her passion in life is to help people everywhere beat cancer by providing them with access to the best treatment available anywhere and helping them pay for it. The Wudzy App and the basketball game will raise funds for those who desperately need it, so they may have the best chance to lead long, happy, healthy and fulfilled lives. 

Kirk is Jodie’s son and Wudzy’s first grandchild. Kirk and Wudzy were incredibly close and it was Wudzy who instilled in Kirk from a very early age his love of basketball. Kirk still plays for Hawthorn Magic in the Big V . Outside of basketball – amongst other things – Kirk is Business Manager at Triangle Logistics Management, is actively involved in the design & development of the Wudzy App and plays a key role in all Wudzy Inc. initiatives.

Emma has worked in PR since she graduated from Monash University in 2015, where she received the Dean’s Recognition Award for ‘Outstanding Academic Results’. She has moved on from her role as Communications Executive at the Walt Disney Company and is now a Communications Adviser at Monash University. She is an extremely driven, intelligent and hard-working young lady with a heart of gold. Emma is the longterm girlfriend of Jodie’s son Kirk and as such knew Colin well.

Darren played over 200 games as a professional basketball player in the NBL until he retired in 2004. He worked for 10 years as the CEO for the Red Dust Role Models Foundation before leaving there recently to start his position as head of Basketball Australia Pathways, a fabulous organisation that assists talented young australian basketballers wanting to enter into the US College system. Darren and his family are close friends of Jodie’s family and knew Colin well.
