The event brought the former player community together to celebrate the launch of the IC’s initiative to assist former players, Beyond the Tour (BTT), which in the first instance offers complimentary introductory membership to recently retired players. The evening was an opportunity to acknowledge the careers of those recently retired, something that’s often overlooked. Former players inducted into the IC under the BTT initiative were Isabella Holland, Ashling Sumner, Adam Hubble and Stephanie Bengson. It was a great get together, welcoming these and our other new members, Mary Sawyer Collins, Kane Dewhurst, Jane Taylor, John Fitzgerald and Nicole Keneally. It was a most enjoyable evening, attended by nearly 90 of Australia’s former players and tennis community, including John Newcombe, Evonne Cawley, Frank Sedgman, Janet Young, and our then-President Geoff Masters. Also present were representatives from the WTA, ATP and joint hosts of the event, Tennis Australia (TA). IC 2019 Year in Review Page 3 TA CEO Craig Tiley, with IC committee members Dianne Evers and Helen Muir at the BTT Launch TA attendees included CEO Craig Tiley, Chief Tennis Officer Matt Dwyer and one of the excellent lineup of speakers on the night, Head of Performance, Wally Masur. Kerryn Pratt was the MC, Geoff officially launched the Beyond the Tour program, Newk gave his personal tips, Evonne shared her experience of finding identity after professional tennis, and Renee Beck delivered an emotional and powerful message endorsing the IC direction.

Stories told emphasized the common experiences former players have and many of the new members gave fascinating insights into their lives after tennis. It was left to Scott Draper to sum things up brilliantly, inspiring our tennis family to support each other and encourage others to connect with the former player community.

Former players and IC members Carol O’Sullivan, Mary Sawyer Collins and Kaye Hallam Nealon IC 2019 Year in Review Page 6 IC HOPMAN CUP FUNCTION PERTH, JANUARY 2019 The IC Function at the 2019 Hopman Cup was a great success but marked the end of an era, with the Hopman Cup being played for the last time. There was great enthusiasm for this gathering, attended by many special guests, with IC Secretary Mandy Morgan the speaker about the IC’s direction and Beyond the Tour. Christine Matison Dorey and Mandy Morgan, IC Hopman Cup function IC 2019 Year in Review Page 7 KOOYONG TENNIS DAY AND LUNCH JANUARY 2019 A terrific morning of tennis took place on the spectacular Kooyong grass under sunny skies. Fun social doubles sets were played, overseen by Match Captain Terry Stone, who then hosted lunch in the clubrooms, along with President Kerryn Pratt and other Committee members. Attending were a number of representatives from the All England Club and Kooyong. Other guests included former TA President Geoff Pollard, ICA Vice Presidents Cedric Mason and Tim Cawthorn and Vice President of IC France, Gail Benedetti, with her sister, Aussie member and legendary seniors player Carol Campling. Thanks to Terry, Carol, Mandy, Chris and all involved with the organisation of the day.

Geoff stood down for personal reasons and leaves after laying strong foundations for the BTT initiative and the Club’s future. Renee Beck joined the Committee and Victor Eke departed, after making a great contribution over many years. Mandy Morgan was re-elected as Secretary, after holding that position jointly with Kerryn, and Noel Jensen continues as Treasurer. Noel reported that the Club is in a sound financial position. Kerryn spoke of the many activities planned and the direction of the IC. ANNUAL LUNCH AT ROYAL SOUTH YARRA, JANUARY 2019 AO Mixed doubles finalist JP Smith, Kerryn Pratt, Jayne Hrdlicka and Paul McNamee Nearly 100 guests enjoyed another great IC Australia Annual Lunch held at the splendid Royal South Yarra club on the final Sunday of the Australian Open, with Honorary Life member Cedric Mason delivering the traditional Loyal Toast to start proceedings. Former President and legendary doubles champion Paul McNamee hosted the day, introducing the various attendees. Among the dignitaries were TA President Jayne Hrdlicka, French Federation officials, USTA President Patrick Galbraith, Bill Babcock from the Grand Slam Board, Martin Corrie of the British LTA with his wife Janet, RSY President Tony Joubert and CEO Stewart Fenton, Kooyong President Peter Carew and CEO Chris Brown, and Phillip Brook, All England Chairman with his wife Gillian. (In thanking the IC Australia for the day, Phillip gave a very amusing speech about the roof situation in Paris and how one of the Melbourne Park lids could perhaps be useful in Paris!)

Libby Hodgkins, Eva de Jong, Jan de Tastes and Ann Fotheringham IC 2019 Year in Review Page 12 Early in the lunch, Paul handed over to our newly elected first female ICA President, Kerryn Pratt. Kerryn spoke about the Beyond the Tour initiative and the direction of the Club. She then acknowledged Dianne Evers (one of our Committee members) and New Zealand’s Judy Chaloner for their victory in the 1979 Australian Open doubles, and their tenacity in seeking to see and hold the Trophy together for the first time this week. Remarkably, at the time there was no presentation and they didn’t receive a trophy! Ros Kane, Carol O’Sullivan, with doubles champs ’79 Dianne Evers and Judy Chaloner with Kerryn Pratt Another interviewee was current player and finalist in the AO mixed doubles the previous evening, JP Smith. He won the room talking about the contrast between life on the Challenger circuit compared to his more glamorous fortnight at Melbourne Park. This was a marvellous fairytale story of playing alongside fellow Aussie Astra Sharma and reaching a maiden Grand Slam final! For a change of pace, the wonderful singer Jemma Rix, who was performing as Evita to packed houses as understudy to Tina Arena, enthralled guests with 3 songs including Don’t Cry for me Argentina. IC 2019 Year in Review Page 13 If that wasn’t enough to get everyone emotional, Frank and Jean Sedgman were introduced and invited to dance to Unforgettable, a song with a lot of meaning to Frank. When he won the 1952 Wimbledon singles, doubles and mixed, Frank celebrated by dancing to this song with womens champ Maureen Connelly at the Wimbledon ball. This sentimental journey and waltz down memory lane with his beautiful wife Jean was a highlight of the lunch! A fun day was had by all!

Beyond the Tour Ambassador Casey Dellacqua was inducted into the IC by legend of the game and former Vice President Ken Rosewall. Casey retired in April 2018 and spoke compellingly of what she's faced and felt since quitting. Ken presented membership ties and scarves to WTA alumni Casey, Christina Horiatopoulos, Natalija Tanevska, and Sally McCann, Davis Cup champion John Alexander, and Suzy Ellis, inducted as an Associate for her significant contribution to womens tennis in this country through the formation and funding of the Australian Womens Tennis Association in the 1970's.

  • Undies and Arthur Marshall
    The All-Rounder: a memoir of Fremantle sportsman Arthur Marshall by Roger Underwood The champion sportsman who excels in several sporting disciplines is a well-known phenomenon. Don Bradman, for example, was also the South Australian squash champion and a scratch golfer; Test fast bowler Ray Lindwall also played first grade rugby league in NSW and was a top sprinter. Western Australians who were multi-disciplinary champions include Keith Slater, who played Test cricket and football, cricket and baseball for WA, Derek Chadwick who played football and cricket with distinction for WA, and Rick Charlesworth, an Olympic hockey player and also a State cricketer. Fremantle all-rounders of note include John Baguley, who was an Olympic long and triple-jumper, played rugby for WA and league football for East Fremantle, and Merv Cowan who was captain of the Fremantle A Grade cricket team and the East Fremantle League football team, a State water polo player and State breaststroke swimming champion. The phenomenon is easily understood. Champion sportsmen share key physical and mental attributes: they are naturally athletic, they have exceptional hand-eye coordination and lightning reflexes, are highly competitive, and they have that special inner strength known as “the will to win”. This is best demonstrated in the champion who ‘wins ugly’ – sporting lingo for the ability to dig deep and find a way to win even when injured or having an off-day. The champion who performs at the elite level in several disciplines is rarer today than in earlier eras. Modern sporting champions tend to specialise. They choose to become a full-time AFL footballer, a Test cricketer, or a swimmer or golfer, and they do this while still a teenager.
