We have worked very closely with the AOC to align our fundraising strategy to give us the best opportunity to hit our targets. Our target is $1M (with $7.8M being the National Figure). Apart from fundraising our other focus being on the PDC and Athlete wellbeing and the Olympians Club. With that in mind we spent the year hard at work, continuing on with our legacy events and putting together a team of people to go to work on a new initiative and new direction. Lets take a look at what we have been up to! Sochi 2014 Throughout 16 days of action packed competition we saw 60 Australian athletes compete on the world stage at the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games. We witnessed triumph and heartbreak as the Australian Olympic Winter Team campaign concluded with 3 Medals and a host of top 5, 10, and 16 results. Queensland had 5 Athletes compete at the Games, Alex Ferlazzo – Luge, Deanna Lockett – Short Track Skating, Ross Peraudo – Alpine Skiing, Astrid Radjenovic – Bobsleigh and Michelle Steele – Skeleton. Deanna achieving a Top 10 result in the 1000m Short Track Skating. Pierre de Coubertin Awards The Pierre de Coubertin Awards were again a highlight on the QOC calendar this year. To see the looks on the students faces when presented with their Awards continues to be a highlight for me personally. The presentation was held on Saturday 12 July 2014 at Somerville House in South Brisbane. 126 Recipients attended out of 201 Nominations received this year. This presentation was a group effort and could not have been so successful without the help of all involved.

Protecting the health of the athletes is one of the major priorities for the International Olympic Committee and its Medical and Scientifi c Commission, which I have the privilege to chair. As risks are inherent to the practice of sport, we also work closely with medical and sports science experts from around the world to share the latest insights into the fi eld of injury and illness prevention in sport, as we strive to keep the athletes as fi t and healthy as possible. As I am myself from the medical profession, I know how important it is to be aware of the latest research and medical practices and to be able to use them to serve the athletes in the best way possible. Sharing this knowledge and establishing concrete measures will be the main focus of this 11th edition of the IOC Advanced Team Physician Course.
