Lee's Cricket Career

Always a precocious talent, Carseldine’s years of agonising back stress fractures and degenerative disc problems forced him into premature retirement. A spinal fusion and complications resulting from a life threatening infection did not stop Lee from learning to walk again and from make a remarkable comeback, a feat that was even recognised by News Corp in the top 20 courageous athletes of 2008. Lee played 132 matches for Queensland and travelled extensively whilst playing professionally in India, England, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, South Africa and Bangladesh.

Lee's Health & Fitness

Since sustaining major injuries throughout his career Lee has always maintained a strong focus on his fitness, which has seen him complete a number of personal achievements including marathons, triathlons and the Kokoda Track post retirement. Lee also pushed his body and mind twice (S1, All Stars) in one of the toughest reality TV shows in Australia, Survivor (Australia).

Charity

Charity

Created by Australian Survivor All-Stars, Lee Carseldine and winner David Genat after Lee lost his mother to a stroke on the show in 2019. The Towel Challenge was launched in March 2020 in the middle of COVID and still raised $70K and reached more than 4.2 million Australians in awareness last year for the Stroke Foundation. In 2021 the calendar was produced again and involved celebrities such as Sophie Monk , Hugh Sheridan and Olympians Danielle Scott and Emily Seebohm

For their effort, Lee and David was awarded Stroke Foundation’s Fundraiser of the Year Award in 2021.

In 2022, Lee embarked on one of his biggest challenges of his life raising awareness and funds again for the Stroke Foundation. Lee powered across 140kms of sand – from the top to bottom of Fraser Island – in just over 24 hours, carrying a 19kg backpack (for a very special reason) to help raise awareness about stroke.

Lee also guest speaks for the Stroke Foundation at many functions raising awareness for the illness and stroke survivors.
