Brydens Lawyers NSW Blues duo James Maloney and David Klemmer played a pivotal role in seeing the Blues to an Origin series win. But now, along with 2014 series-winning NSW Blues skipper Paul Gallen, the pair are being recognised for another, more important, role off the field – being a good dads.
Now in its 10th year, the Philips Sports Dad of the Year will highlight 10 elite athletes across a broad range of sports, giving insights into how they juggle fatherhood with their sporting commitments.
