Rob Geersen- Inclusion Specialist

In 2015, recognising a need and fuelled by a powerful passion for a cause close to his heart, Rob set out on a mission to make a difference.

His vision in founding Starkick was forged through a personal connection and desire for increasing disability inclusion, using football as the platform to drive that change. This connection remains the driving force behind his unwavering and ongoing commitment to ensure every child, no matter their circumstances, is provided the opportunity to play and belong to their community through football.

On launching Starkick at his own club, Rob spent the next years 6 years volunteering and helping grow the program into other community clubs across WA, prior to joining the WAFC in 2021.

Rob's dedication to inclusion is not just professional; it's personal. He's passionate about the cause, and his enduring commitment is evident in the positive impact Starkick has had on many lives. Rob Geersen is more than a founder; he's a driving force behind a movement that's changing lives for the better.
