Professor Kendall Reusing
The GB Oceania Ambassador Program is something I am very proud and privileged to be a part of. I had my most successful year last year, winning 2 major international competitions and many in Australia. The support of GB Oceania and our sponsors has helped me to achieve these goals in the competitions, as well as my personal goals as I work to be the best person and athlete I can be. I am very excited to see what we can do in 2024.
In 2024 my goal is to focus on my game, improving my technique and physicality and achieving top results at the highest level in competition. I would also love to be able to inspire young athletes to train and help them grow through jiu jitsu.
