As promised, here is another edition of the Squash Australia Annual Awards: WA Sweep! Here’s Episode 2: Ted Barlow State/Territory of the Year – Western Australia!
There’s no other way of saying it – Western Australia has EXCELLED in the last 12 months, breaking national records for the highest rollout of MySquashAUS (revo). WA have increased their core and event funding for the association, secured a state facility, and been awarded substantial funds to update it. WA has had significant participation and input into national strategic and operational plans and working teams. This has allowed the state to align more with Squash Australia, positively influence change within the sport, and commence driving that change to better support participation within WA.
Accepting the award, Leigh modestly reflected, “Thank you to our clubs, our board and our amazing volunteer base who have all helped us achieve our goals and made all this possible. Without the support of Squash Australia, the past and present staff in our office, volunteers and community, we would not be where we are now.”
Stay tuned for Episode 3: Club of the Year – Mirrabooka Squash Club! There will also be a full write up in the SWAN.
