The Sorrento Football and Netball Club asked Andrew Bogut to be a guest speaker at a Presidents Luncheon during the 2018 Football season. On the day, Andrew arrived early and spent some time talking to our senior players. During this time, he shared many of his experiences with the team, which some eight months later they still talk about and the impact Andrew had on them and the special time they shared with him on that day. As a guest speaker Andrew was very entertaining and had all 157 guests enthralled on everything he spoke about. Andrew has a deep passion for the City of Melbourne and his knowledge on a wide range of topics was exceptional. Andrew was well spoken and was a great guest speaker who was generous with his time and allowed a wide range of questions from our luncheon guests.
