Story
Dave Leach has been coaching Rob Mullet since he was a schoolboy. As any of you that know Dave will appreciate he volunteers his time and support generously and has been there every step of the way in support of Rob's Olympic endevour.
He is a long-standing member and coach at Lewes Athletics club where he inspires, encourages, mentors and supports his athletes. He offers equal praise and enthusiasm regardless of ability and is always there with the right words when needed. I (and many others I'm sure) would not be running without him!
Despite the numerous commitments he has to the athletics club he also works full-time! The Southdown Sports Club are extremely fortunate to have Dave as their groundsman. He takes great pride in ensuring that the club maintains its excellent reputation for its immaculately kept grounds (through all weathers and seasons). There is a vast amount Dave does at the club behind the scenes and he is a tireless and dedicated worker.
Of course all of this would not be possible without the unswerving support from Dave's family (for which we know he is eternally grateful!).
After narrowly missing selection for the London Olympics Rob has finally gained the recognition he deserves and has been selected to go to Rio! Now all we want to do is send Dave to be there with him. Please help us raise enough money so that we can GET DAVE TO RIO!!

8 years ago'Team Dave' aren't the only people who think we have a great story to tell! Dave's story is in the Telegraph online and today's edition or listen to his interview on Radio 5 live this morning (7:20) Dave spoke like a true pro. We are wondering if he's been leading a double life...?
