    Jim Bradley: 17th May 1921 to 2nd July 2015

    Jim Bradley - the man who introduced speedball to athletics training and became a brilliant & legendary coach passed away at the age of 94, on 2nd July 2015.

    On Tuesday 7th July 2015 a Memorial Service was held at the Essendon Football Club (Melbourne Australia).

    I was privileged to deliver a eulogy at the service.

    The Jim Bradley name is synonymous with one of the world's best speedballs (speed bag). No doubt there's a number of threads on this forum discussing the quality of the Jim Bradley speedball.

    RIP Jim Bradley.

      Not being from Australia I had overlooked that he was involved with footy. RIP Jim Bradley.
