Songwriter, broadcaster and one of the original Coodabeen Champions.
Greg Champion is one quarter of the Coodabeen Champions, the long-running ABC radio comedy show that's been part of the soundtrack of an Australian football weekend for more than 40 years. He's also a songwriter and musician in his own right, with a catalogue of much-loved Aussie songs and a deep, warm baritone that's been the centre of countless live performances.
For corporate events he's an unusually flexible entertainer — he can do a comedy musical set, perform classic Coodabeens material, MC a footy lunch, or pair up with other Champions for a full show. The work is gentle, witty and built on shared cultural memory, and it lands particularly well with older corporate and not-for-profit audiences.
Greg is a strong choice for footy lunches, community events and any function where a bit of warmth, music and shared Australiana is the brief.
Greg Champion OAM is a keynote speaker, MC and entertainer based in Victoria who speaks on media & journalism. Book through Executive Speakers Australia.
When a company/club wants to 'roast' their own personnel, they provide Greg with 'dirt & gossip', which he then embellishes, without revealing sources.
Greg was terrific. Very easy to work with, and he related well to the audience. Would highly recommend his services.Master Locksmiths Association of Australasia
We had issues with audio set-up even after we were assured by venue that they had an experienced technician on hand. Greg lived up to his name and was an absolute champion even retrieving his own cables from his car and like the true professional he is, the show went on through one speaker. He was extremely entertaining, engaging and read the crowd beautifully. I would highly recommend Greg for any corporate function. He is going to be a hard act to follow at next year’s party.Fuji Xerox
The night was a great success, both financially and socially and Greg was a great hit. Greg participated in the auction of players and made it much more enjoyable, we had lots of feedback from people who really enjoyed his performance. He is very funny and very easy to get on with.Montrose Football Club
