6 REPORT

It gives me much pleasure to welcome you and the start of our fundraising campaign for the Summer Olympics of Japan in 2020.

We are well within an 18-month window before the Games and just embarking on our major fundraising campaign to assist Western Australian athletes attend the 2020 Olympics as members of our Australian Olympic Team. Funding to get our athletes to an Olympic Games is entirely independent of Federal Government funding, and this responsibility is willingly championed by the WAOC as the representative body for the Olympic movement in Western Australia.

Our WA Team Appeal Committee has now commenced raising our share of the State Olympic Councils funding target towards the Australian Team Appeal, after having successfully conclu .

Fundraising remains a key performance outcome for the WAOC, and as such we will again promote and deliver high class events and activities with the assistance of a motivated and dedicated Olympic Team Appeal Committee WA (OTACWA) consisting of prominent Perth business men and women. I would like to acknowledge a refreshed Team Appeal Committee currently under the direction of Deputy Chair Andrew Vlahov OAM and I look forward to the initiatives and of course the standard of events this Committee delivers on our behalf.

update of our 2016 Strategic planning document during 2018, and through our office.

The re- er WA, is also intended to reflect and highlight the closer had the pleasure of hosting 2 visits of AOC staff including CEO Matt Carroll and James Edwards Director National Fundraising, Community, and Athlete Services. We have worked closely together in reviewing our State practices and indeed strategic direction to not only ensure better alignment with the AOC strategic plan but also decrease our administrative burden and reflect the increased support from the national office. That administrative and technical support has extended to cloud based storage of our files and also addressed security and privacy measures.

It has also been rewarding to see further AOC engagement of the State Olympic Council Presidents, including myself, directly at the AGM and subsequently with State based meetings. This has afforded the opportunity to provide clarity and understanding in terms of our unique Joint Executive operating philosophy in Western Australia and also the sharing of ideas, concerns and visions of the WAOC Executive and the broader membership.

In regard to finances we welcomed the removal of the capped % allocation philosophy towards our office funding, replaced by a stand-alone AOC budgeted amount which reflects the operating costs of WA based representation of the Olympic movement.

Funding for the WAOC remains predominantly from the AOC especially with the WA Government decreasing their level of direct financial support. However, the location and availability of our office facilities at WAIS and the State financial contribution is much appreciated and reflects a long-standing partnership with successive WA governments and now through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. We are equally appreciative of the office hosting relationship with the WA Institute of Sport (WAIS) and thank Steve Lawrence and his team.

We will continue to work with the WA Government to ensure they are aware of the impact we have in the community and the unquantifiable benefits we leave as a legacy.

Examples of this also extends to a number of initiatives from the AOC office which are now seeing the increased engagement of the states in the delivery and management of nationwide programs such as the Youth Olympic Mentor Program which is being managed and implemented by the WAOC office.

Olympian Services have also been ensconced in day to day activities of the AOC with the engagement of Olympian , and it was so refreshing to hear him speak to the Joint executive earlier this year and his vision for the Olympians Services Program. We continue of course to promote, support and prepare our athletes on their Olympic representation journey and continue to maintain the WA Olympians database, ensuring Western Australians are more informed and more aware of the success of our WA athletes.

Again, this year we were proud to deliver activities with our Australian Olympians benefitting the WA Community, the Champions 2 Country Regional Tour, this year to the Kimberley, the Pierre de Coubertin Awards, concluding with the Academy here at WAIS, and of course Olympic Day activities. All are further detailed under the Olympians and Community section of this report

Our office, through Lisa, continues to support our Olympic alumni through the WA Olympians Club and I again thank forward to more direct support through the AOC Olympians Services Program.

Commonwealth Games activity in the Western Australian community by forging long-term mutually beneficial the pursuit of similar levels of support with our WA Commonwealth Games colleagues and Commonwealth Games Australia to ensure we reflect a true collaborative partnership in the support of athletes in Western Australia

take this opportunity to thank a number of the organisations and individuals who have given the WAOC and myself support in addition to those already mentioned: • Sam Castiglione President of ACGAWA, • Hon Mick Murray MLA Minister for Seniors and Ageing; Volunteering; Sport and Recreation • Steve Lawrence and the WA Institute of Sport staff • Members of the WAOC/CGAWA Joint Executive team whom I have had the privilege and opportunity to work, with thanks to member David guest who resigned due to work commitments overseas. I thank each and every one of you for your commitment. Lisa and I both look forward to further engaging with the Japanese community here in WA in the lead up to Tokyo 2020, o Games and working with our State Sporting Association to showcase their sports.

I also eagerly look forward to our Tokyo 2020, fundraising activities and foresee us, as with the last 3 Olympic fundraising

8 REPORT

Leading into an Olympic Games is always an exciting time. The months fly by as the countdown begins. The Games however, are not the only catalyst for exciting times at the Australian Olympic Committee. The changes to the Executive at the AOC following 2016 have culminated in a new look, streamlined AOC focused on best practice in the workplace, community engagement and the health and wellbeing of our Olympians.

In 2017, the AOC committed to implementing all 17 recommendations of the independent cultural review of the organisation. 2018 saw the final implementation of the remaining recommendations and having been involved with the organisation throughout the entire process, I am proud to work for and represent our Olympic movement here in WA. The clear objectives set out for each department and the increased collaboration between colleagues and departments has resulted in a more unified and systematic approach to the way we work. The organisation will continue to evolve whilst aligning all we do with

A comprehensive review of the AOC was undertaken as part of the cultural review and in collaboration with all stakeholders and staff a revised set of organisational values has been developed which all staff strive towards.: Listen and learn; Personal best; Act with integrity; Respect for all; A positive force.

With Daniel Kowalski OAM heading up Olympian Services, we are seeing the introduction of some valuable mental health and wellness tools which will help our Olympians now and when they make the decision to leave elite sport.

The desire to have a greater reach and impact on our community and inspire our youth through sport has seen the successful implantation of the Olympics Unleashed program in QLD and NSW. We look forward to launching the program in WA in 2019 enabling our Olympians to share their stories and inspiring our WA school children. The inspiration piece is not solely focussed on sport; however, it is encouraging the students to be and do the best they can do in whatever is their passion in life, sport, the arts or academia. Important messages for all West Australians.

At the AOC we are cognisant of the ever-changing sporting landscape. With the introduction of Australian Rules Football (AFLW) Competition, it is important we continue to actively promote our Olympic Sports and share the experiences and achievements of our Olympians among the wider the community. Many Olympians I have spoken to over the years say that representing their country is the pinnacle of their career and they wear the Green and Gold with immense pride. The Olympics Unleashed program will achieve this objective.

It is also important we recognise the threat which the money and media exposure of AFLW poses and work with the Government and National Sporting Organisations on strategies to increase participation in Olympic Sports at grass roots level and provide a clear and attractive pathway towards elite level participation in our Olympic Sports. Recent sport funding cuts at Federal and State Level is of concern. Unfortunately, the benefits of sport and participation at any level of competition is not easily measured. Not only are there physical benefits, the mental benefit of participation in sport should not be underestimated. Being part of a team, building resilience and self-esteem and the release of endorphins during exercise all contribute to a healthy individual, both in body and mind and ultimately would decrease the burden on the health budget. However, we see greater spending on health and a reduction in sport funding. Our concern is this will eventually result in an even larger amount being spent on health to cope with increased obesity and mental health issues faced by our community.

Our major focus in 2019 will be fundraising. Andrew Vlahov has been instrumental in the re-building of the Team Appeal Committee and I am grateful for his time and guidance in developing a fundraising program that will attract WA corporate support. Our focus is and always will be our Olympians achieving their dream.

Finally, I would like to acknowledge the support received from our State Sporting Associations, the WA Institute of Sport, VenuesWest and the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. We look forward to further collaboration in 2019 for mutually beneficial outcomes.

I would also like to thank the WAOC Executive and President Greg Kaeding for their continued support and guidance.

2018 Pierre de Coubertin Awards

Named after the founder of the modern Olympics, the Pierre de Coubertin Awards recognise students who demonstrate the Olympic values of Excellence, Respect and Friendship. 43 WA secondary school students have recently been awarded with the prestigious award.

Students attended the Olympic Academy Day, where they had a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn about leadership, goal setting and resilience Olympic heroes. Olympians Jesse Phillips ( Kayak); Tamsin Cook (Swimming); Danielle Kettlewell (Synchronised Swimming) and Rhys Grant (Rowing) shared with the students their own Olympic journey, their triumphs and challenges. The students also learnt about the Olympic movement and toured the Western Australian Institute of Sports high performance facility.

One of the main objectives is to provide inspiration to the regional youth on issues of healthy lifestyle, leadership, respect, motivation to achieve goals, team work and sharing sporting experiences.

Over the 4 days the athletes travelled 1200km throughout the East Kimberley, visiting 6 remote towns (Kununurra, Wyndham, Doon Doon, Warmun, Frog Hollow, and Halls Creek), sharing their stories at the 17 school talks, facilitating 2 sporting clinics and participating in 6 community events, inspiring thousands of children across the remote region.

Activities included the launch of registrations at the Kununurra Little Athletics, a Swimming Clinic with the Kununurra Swimming Club, Celebrity Tree planting in the Celebrity Tree Park in breakfast where approximately 80 guests enjoyed hearing from the athletes and getting the chance to hold Olympic and Commonwealth Games Medals.

Reflecting on the Swim Clinic and Community Br experience and we had the opportunity to chat with everyone and really talk about their hopes and aspirations for the future. I felt like we made

Belinda Stowell remarked that all the communit children so inquisitive and keen to listen wide eyed and excited about what we had to say. We want to encourage them to Dream BIG and chase their goals! It was so special, and we felt honoured to be invited into these beautiful little community schools, it was incredibly rewarding to be able to engage so closely with the children in these remote schools and be part of the spirit .

The average tour day includes visits to 2-3 schools and a community event or sporting clinic. The athletes are generally split into 2 groups, so we are able to visit more students. Promotion of the tour is facilitated locally through the Department of Sport office. Local radio stations and newspapers are always engaged to enable maximum reach and impact in the region.

The Tour is presented by the WA Olympic Council (WAOC) and Commonwealth Games Australia WA (CGAWA) with support from the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC). Steph Clements once again did an amazing job managing the tour and was assisted during the tour by WAOC Supported by: President Greg Kaeding.

Olympic Day 2018

Olympic Day is celebrated globally on 23 June every year, providing the perfect opportunity for our Olympians to go out into the community and share their stories and promote the values of Olympism, fundamentally, being the best version of yourself.

In 2018 we celebrated Olympic Day in a variety of ways including visits to local swimming schools and speaking with the children following their swimming lessons. (swimming, 2012 & 2016) and Tamsin Cook (swimming 2016) visited VenuesWest venues at Arena Joondalup and HBF Stadium respectively, giving the children the chance to also hold an Olympic Silver medal and take photos with their swimming heroes.

Visits to schools is also an important part of our Olympic Day celebrations. (hockey, 2012) visited John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School, speaking to the students (Yr 11, approx 350 students) about goal setting, overcoming setbacks and believing in yourself.

St Andrews Grammar, where they ran a mini- Olympics complete with the flag ceremony. The whole school (approx 500 students) made a human

Presentations were also made to 1 boy and 1 girl from yr 1 (who received a mini-boxing kangaroo) for displaying the values of sportsmanship and respect by encouraging their team mates. As a thank you to the school Blair presented a signed Olympic Flag to the Head Boy and Girl which is hanging proudly on their reception wall.

Our Olympians always enjoy visiting with the children at Perth Children s Hospital and bringing smiles to their faces. Jesse Phillips (canoe sprint 2012), Danielle Kettlewell (synchronised swimming 2016), and Tamsin Cook (swimming 2016) visited with patients and hung out in the Starlight room playing games with the children and then finished off the morning with a live intra-hospital television broadcast going out to all children in the hospital, demonstrating some of the Olympic Sports in a hilarious simulated multi-sport competition.

Country Week is held in June each year. Around 50 regional schools visit Perth to compete across a variety of Sports. In consultation with School Sport WA, the WAOC was able to present to the Country Week Management Committee regarding the Pierre de Coubertin Awards providing information and promoting the awards as a chance to recognise student leaders within their schools. Country Week, being in June, is the perfect opportunity to reach regional students and promote Olympic Day and the values of Olympism.

Belinda Stowell (sailing 2000, 2008, 2012) was engaged as a key note speaker at the Country Week Leadership Forum where approximately 100 student leaders from high schools across the State gathered to learn about commitment, resilience and leadership. Belinda also participated in the Leaders workshop helping students with their tasks. We appreciate the opportunity to continue to work with School Sport WA and be able to reach the students from Regional WA and have a greater impact on the Regional areas sharing the Olympic Spirit.

Olympic Day was also celebrated at club (grass roots) level with Olympian Natalie Burton ( 2016) inspiring the girls of the Perry Natalie ran a training session for the Team, taking them through a few Olympic Team Training drills and sharing her Olympic experience at the end of the session with the girls able to ask Natalie questions about when she knew that she wanted to go to the Olympics and what type of foods she eats prior to a big game.

The opportunity for young children to learn from triumph is so important. Images of Medals and videos of Olympians winning are often seen, however the images and videos of the many days filled with blood sweat and tears are often not. The triumph is important but what we can learn from the journey to that triumph is just as important.

It is also very humbling and rewarding for the Olympians to see the impact they have on the children. The children listening intently and the fact that what they hear may be the catalyst for them making the decision to follow that journey to triumph.

16 FUNDRAISING

The Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) is responsible for funding, resourcing and sending the Australian Olympic Team to the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, Youth Olympics and other world class events. The AOC do not receive nor request Federal Government funding for teams or programs, ensuring our independence from political influence.

It will cost $22,000,000 to send the Australian Olympic Team to Tokyo covering

• $14,000,000 is raised via corporate sponsorships. • $8,000,000 is raised through the Australian Olympic Team Appeal, a unified fund that brings all State and Territory donations and corporate fundraising together. Every cent contributed to the Australian Olympic Team Appeal goes directly to supporting our Australian athletes at the Olympic Games. All funds raised go to a separate account, dedicated to the Australian Olympic Team and is separately audited as such. The funds are not used for the general administration of the AOC. Of the $8,000,000, WA is responsible for raising $1,000,000. These funds are raised by our Olympic Team Appeal Committee via corporate engagement in fundraising events and seeking the traditional one third of target State Government contribution. Since 1992, State Governments and Territories (except NT) have supported their respective and in 2020, the WAOC will request WA Government support of $333,000, one third of our $1,000,000 target

The WA Team Appeal Committee is a volunteer group of WA business leaders, which currently includes 2 prominent WA Olympians, who utilise their corporate and personal networks to garner support for our fundraising activities. Following the 2018 Commonwealth Games the Committee has been through a rebuilding phase and we are still yet to appoint our Chair. Andrew Vlahov OAM OLY has been instrumental in this re-build and the WAOC would like to thank him for his dedication and counsel in developing the fundraising program and the rebuild of the Committee.

17 STAKEHOLDERS

State Sporting Associations

Our member organisations are an integral part of the sporting landscape in WA. Their grassroots programs and athlete pathways are the source of our future Olympians and the WAOC enjoys a positive working relationship with all Associations. We continue to run many of our Olympians Club social events in association with the major events run by the State Sporting Associations.

VenuesWest VenuesWest own and manage many of the facilities where our Olympians and aspiring Olympians train. We thank VenuesWest for their support of our programs and initiatives and look forward to working with them and providing assistance to their programs and services.

The WAOC provide support to the VenuesWest Ambassador Program by promoting the opening of nominations through our Olympic network and providing information and feedback to program coordinators on the nominations received. Athletes Courtney Bruce (Netball), Sarah Edmiston (Athletics), Nina Kennedy (Athletics) and Conor Leahy (Track Cycling) were selected as Brand Ambassadors for 2018.

WA Institute of Sport The Western Australian Olympic Council are fortunate to lease office space inside the Western Australian Institute of Sport, the home of high performance sport in WA. The close working relationship between the WAOC and WAIS and the proximity to athletes and their coaches is crucial in relationship development and the resulting positive program outcomes.

WAIS meeting rooms and facilities are hired to host our Council meetings and deliver our various events. The Mondo Track pictured right was used to host our Pierre de Coubertin Award Ceremony, giving a rare opportunity for our public guests to see the inside of the impressive facility. IN the lead up to the 2020 Olympics, Team processing sessions will be held using the Mondo Track and Group Therapy rooms for Channel Seven interviews.

19 GOVERNANCE

WAOC Executive Framework The Western Australian Olympic Council (WAOC) and the Commonwealth Games Australia Western Australian division (CGAWA) operate under a joint office agreement enabling the conduct of a professional and administratively efficient operation in 2018.

In 2018, three meetings of the WAOC Executive were held. The WAOC audit is funded and managed by the AOC with the services of accounting company EY. The financial statements are prepared by the AOC and reviewed and endorsed by the WAOC. A detailed analysis of the statements can be found on page 32.

Membership The WAOC represents a total of 30 Constituent State Sporting Association (SSA) members and 4 Recognised SSA members. Members were engaged through invitations to WAOC functions and provided with regular communications via emails and newsletters. In the lead up to Tokyo 2020 the relationships will be important in ensuring we leverage the games and the increased exposure to the Olympic Sports and increase participation levels.

Funding The AOC fund the office of the WAOC through employment of the State manager. The AOC provide strategic guidance and administration assistance, including finance, payroll and audit. The 2018 funding model is based on the fundraising targets of each State Office and funds appropriated accordingly.

Financial support for joint office is also granted by the WA Government through the Department of Sport. The State Government funding enables the office to build capacity in the community and provides the State Government with a value-added return on its investment in elite sport in WA. With budgetary pressure faced by State Government departments in more recent times, funding to the WAOC office has decreased, however we will continue to work with the Government to ensure they are aware of the importance of our work in the community.

Our community benefit is difficult to measure and the benefit of the mobilisation of our Olympians, sharing their stories with the community, should not be underestimated.

State Sporting Association membership affiliation fees also contributed to the WAOC income in 2018.

Australian Olympic Committee 2018 was a remarkable year for the AOC, having gone through a cultural and ethics review in 2017 and implementing organisation wide changes in 2018, positively affecting the way we work and how our programs are delivered. The AOC reset was the focus for much of 2017, however 2018 saw the AOC evolution.

The AOC has dedicated a lot of time reviewing work practices and policies. Greater contact and collaboration with the national office has increased the efficiency of our shared resources and ensures all the states have consistent messaging around our programs. Increased communication with the Public Affairs and Communication department enables national exposure for our local programs reinforcing our One Team approach.

Commonwealth Games Australia WA Division Funding Whilst not directly a funding partner of the WAOC, we acknowledge the financial contribution of the CGAWA division in recognition of event management service provision for the delivery of the Commonwealth Games Athlete Farewell Luncheon.

The tour aims to provide the East Kimberley community an opportunity to be inspired by high profile role models. One of the main objectives is to provide inspiration to the regional youth on issues including healthy lifestyle, team work, leadership, respect, motivation to achieve goals, and sharing sporting experiences. The full story and more images can be found on page 11 of this report.

We are fortunate our appreciating the support provided by the people of Western Australia during their Olympic and Commonwealth Games campaigns.

This year the lunch was themed as Golden Women celebrating our Olympic Gold Medal winning women and the 50th, 30th, 20th and 10th anniversaries of the Olympic years ending in 8. A big thanks to Paul Cumming from Phenomenon Creative Events who provided various complimentary items to assist with decorating the room. The event was attended by 99 people, including 48 Olympians and 2 Paralympians, who between them as athletes, coaches, medical and team managers have attended 103 Games (Summer, Winter and Paralympics) and won 17 Medals (11 Gold, 3 Silver, 3 Bronze). The day included a tribute video to Shirley Strickland and an interview panel with our female Olympic Gold Medalists Lyn Mckenzie (swimming), Hockeyroos Sally Carbon, , Jackie Pereira and Liane Tooth, Danielle Woodhouse (water polo) and Belinda Stowell (sailing). There was also an interview panel with representatives from the 1968, 1988 and 2008 Olympic Games made up of Brian Miller (hockey), Fiona Wildy (swimming), Richard Pengelly (water polo), Andrew Vlahov (basketball), Nat Bale (rowing) and Eric Pearce (hockey). A fun, interactive electronic Olympic Quiz focussed on Women at the Olympics was also conducted. The Christmas raffle proceeds of $1,110 will again be donated

OCWA Fundraising

A massive thank you to Brian Miller (Medical 1984 (UK), 1988, 1992 x 2, 1996 (UK), 2016) who recently spearheaded a fundraising effort utilising his business contacts to raise funds for OCWA. All companies who contributed were recognised on the day and the OCWA Committee thanks everybody who generously contributed. These donations will allow the OCWA Committee to continue to offer high quality, low cost events and has offset the need to request voluntary contributions from our alumni.

The OCWA aims to conduct events that appeal to a wide range of our Olympians, and will continue to look for opportunities host functions in conjunction with local sporting events, Olympic anniversaries and the WA Olympic Council. The OCWA Committee also acknowledges and thanks Lisa Lilleyman at the WAOC for the terrific support she provides to OCWA.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Executives for the Financial Report determined that the basis of preparation described in Note 2 to the financial statements is appropriate to meet the appropriate to meet the Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Executive either intend to liquidate the Association or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the trol. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Executives.
