Shandon Scott - Freediving Physiotherapist and adopted Kiwi

“View from the Pool” is a distinctive series of conversation podcasts between Poolview’s Robin McGloughlin and his guests, who uniquely have all been Lifeguards at some point in their career. 

This weeks podcast features Shandon Scott - a Kiwi adopted physiotherapist  from Northern Ireland.

A casual Lifeguard from 16 years of age until the end of University, we talk about his early rugby career and setting up his own business before he swiftly  decided a move to New Zealand was the right one for him.

Shandon takes us into his new world of free diving, representative rugby, New Zealand ACC, holistic health care and the four day working week.

It was great to catch up again with this young man whom I have know since he was 12,

An inspiration for many young lifeguards - work hard and follow your dreams.

Not yet 30, Shandon seems to have it all under control except for one thing - The NZ Manu!
