But in July, the family’s world was torn apart when Kurtis suddenly took ill, the day after he had been “tearing it up” at football training. “I received a phone call off Kurtis’s mum, Sharni, and she told me that he wasn’t breathing and they’d called an ambulance, so I headed straight over there,” he told the ABC. Paramedics and a doctor who arrived by helicopter were unable to save Kurtis. Since then, doctors have been attempting to find a cause of death. “There’s X amount of doctors in Australia that are smart enough to work that out. It will happen and we’ll find out eventually,” said Mr Scott.
