The year began with the search for a 2012 Bronwen Knox CEO and, in consultation with Melanie Woosnam (Active8 Sport Solutions), the creation of 2012 Jane Moran a relevant strategic plan for the next funding cycle (2017-2019) and the preparation for the 2012 Melissa Rippon core business funding application through the Queensland State Government National 2012 Sophie Smith Parks, Sport and Racing Department for the next three years (2017-2019). 2012 Ashleigh Southern Robert Donaghue was appointed to the CEO role in August. He came with remarkable credentials, extensive experience in sport administration and an enthusiasm to drive the vision of the sport in Queensland to uncharted levels of achievement with team and representative outcomes, participation and governance. Rob began with WPQ on12th September 2016 and already has achieved many of his goals of the role including the development of policies and procedures specifically for Water Polo Queensland. The application for the NPSR funding was lodged on 15th September and WPQ was among the many successful sporting organisation applicants announced in November by the then Treasurer, Minister for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships and Minister for Sport, Curtis Pitt. At this time, on behalf of the water polo community of Queensland, I would like to acknowledge the invaluable and ongoing support and financial contribution from the Queensland Government to our sport, not only through the State Development Program but also through the Get Started, Get Playing, Get Going and Get Active programs. In November 2016, after an extensive operational review in line with the strategic initiatives of the 2017-2019 Strategic Plan, new roles and responsibilities were created. We 9 welcomed Bronwen Knox to the role of Development Officer, Anica Bussell to Media and Communications, Isabella Andersson to Events Coordinator and a little later Mel Rippon to Development Pathways and Participation.

Last year, it was stated that “we are moving into a new and exciting era for water polo in In December, a bigger office space became available and so with the new cloud server, lap this state” and while there is still more to be done, I’m sure that what has been achieved tops, accounting system and updated furniture that created “office envy” at Sports House in the last twelve months must make the members feel positive about their participation Milton, WPQ moved to Suite 1.08. in the organisation and look forward to a successful and bright future for the sport in The new year saw the planning, communication and implementation of new programs Queensland. I would like to thank my fellow Board members for their ongoing commitment - Regional Training Centres (RTC), State Team Program, Sporting Schools Water Polo and dedication to the vision of making Queensland the “home of water polo in Australia” Program. The RTC and State Team programs were new concepts that were produced in whilst portraying the Water Polo Queensland Values. consultation with the Athlete Development Director, QAS Coaches and HPM, DO and Development Pathways Manager. Given the short turn around from planning to delivery Sharyn Tucker stages, these were very successful undertakings shown by the very positive feedback from President the distributed surveys to all participants. These programs can only improve each year with longer selection and appointment processes
