The opportunities for Australian athletes to demonstrate their remarkable talents across a broad spectrum of sports is in no small way a result of the support they receive from the Australian Olympic family, their National Sporting Associations and the broader community who give generously to fundraising appeals across Australia. Queensland Olympians have benefited enormously from the generosity of the Queensland community and the support they have given to successive teams since the first Queensland Olympian competed in an Olympic Games. In return their lessons of strength, sacrifice and determination have been an inspiration to all Queenslanders. With just 28 months till our Olympic team marches out to compete on the world stage in London, the QOC is again focused on ensuring the team is equipped and prepared to tackle the challenges of Olympic competition. The fundraising environment remains extremely competitive with ever increasing numbers of sports, charities and other not-for-profits competing for a pool of funds still impacted by the global economic downturn. Whilst 2009 was a fairly quiet year on the fundraising front a number of successful fundraising events were held during the year kicking off our 2012 campaign. Our fundraising efforts are now ramping up with the aim to raise in excess of $1million to assist in funding the Team in 2012. A new fundraising Committee chaired by Matthew Hill-Smith has been put in place for the 2012 Olympiad to drive our fundraising activities. Olympic education remains a core activity of the QOC. Our flagship program, the Pierre de Coubertin Awards attracted nominations from over 200 schools throughout Queensland. The awards recognise outstanding young Queenslanders who demonstrate athletic ability, sportsmanship, fair-play and artistic talent. These awards culminated in an awards ceremony held in June which brought together this incredible group of talented young Queenslanders to celebrate their achievements. During the year our Executive Director Michael Brierley took leave of absence, giving Monica Klysz the opportunity to expand her management skills. Monica acquitted herself admirably in Michael’s absence and we thank her for her hard work during the year and Tanya Corbett for her support. In 2009 we welcomed the Honourable Phil Reeves to the role of Minister for Sport and look forward to working with him in the coming years. The Queensland Government has set some challenging targets to increase participation in physical activity and the reduction on obesity, particularly in younger Queenslanders. In my last report I outlined the partnership we have with the Department of Sport and Recreation to support the promotion of physical activity and support achieving the government’s challenging obesity targets using Olympism and the resources of the Olympic movement in Queensland. The QOC is firmly committed to supporting the government’s objectives in these two critical areas. I would also make special mention of Queensland Government’s ongoing support of the team. The Premier, Anna Bligh, on behalf of the people of Queensland has again committed to support for the 2012 Australian Olympic Team Appeal. The Queensland Government through the Premier’s Department, Department of Communities, Sport and Recreation Services and the Education Department continue to be strong supporters of both Queenslanders on the Australian Olympic Team and the Queensland Olympic Council. We thank them sincerely on behalf of all Queensland Olympians and aspiring Queensland Olympic hopefuls. I would like to acknowledge and thank my fellow Board members, Executive staff, our volunteers, sponsors and supporters for their support of the QOC and the Olympic Page 7 of 38 movement over the past year. With the flame extinguished in Vancouver our attention is now firmly focused on London. Never have I been more confident that working together we can make the contribution required to ensure our athletes in London have every opportunity to perform at their best and importantly inspire Queenslanders to participate in sport and physical activity. Richard Powell President Page 8 of 38 Executive Director’s Report 2009 marked the beginning of an exciting new journey for the QOC as we set our sights towards the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, 2010 as well as the London Games in 2012. Not only did 2009 usher in the new quadrennium, it brought with it a new Executive Board. We welcomed Joanna Weaver and Toby Jenkins, and farewelled retiring Board Members Garry West-Bail, Nicole Pensko and Jeff Cheales. Their support was invaluable and I wish them well in their future endeavours. Staffing of the QOC also took on a new face with Michael Brierley on leave for nine months commencing March 2009. During this time I assumed the role of Acting Executive Director. New employee Tanya Corbett, Administration Assistant, did an exceptional job and became an invaluable member of the ‘QOC team’. Her friendly personality, mature outlook and professional nature enabled her to forge wonderful relationships with QOC staff and partners. I would like to acknowledge and thank Tanya for her hard work. Tanya left us at the end of 2009 on completion of her contract. Her friendly face will certainly be missed around the office. I wish Tanya all the best in her career - no doubt we will be hearing great things of her in the years to come. The 2012 Team Appeal was launched with the successful staging of the 6 th Annual Qantas Legends Golf Classic at Links Hope Island which raised approximately $40K, no small feat for the tough economic times faced early on in the year. The hard work and dedication of the event committee was crucial to its success. I would particularly like to acknowledge the event sponsors, including Qantas Airways, the committee as well as David Fordham and Alan Meacock.

  • Mosley Retires from International Competition Softball Australia Announced Today the Retirement of Catcher Tracey Mosley from International Softball Competition
    Media Release 9 September 2010 Mosley retires from international competition Softball Australia announced today the retirement of Catcher Tracey Mosley from international Softball competition. A dual Olympian and four time World Championship player, Tracey's international Softball career spanned 20 years. Tracey's first international competition was the 1991 International Softball Federation (ISF) World Junior Softball Championship in Adelaide. It wasn't long before Tracey made her debut as the 163rdcapped player on the Aussie Spirit Australian Open Women's team’s 1992 tour to China. Tracey was a regular in the team until narrowly missing selection for the 1996 Olympic Games. She took a break from the game and returned refreshed and stronger to force her way back into the team selected to compete in the ISF World Championships in 2002. Tracey then went on to compete at the 2004 and 2008 Olympic Games, and the 2006 and 2010 ISF Open Women's World Championships. During her playing career, Tracey accumulated 288 international playing caps and was a key part of Australia's success – she has two Bronze Women's World Championship medals (1994, 2006) and a silver and bronze Olympic medal (2004, 2008). A highlight for Tracey was winning the silver medal in Athens, saying, "The team and the team dynamics were very special, and we all played for each other." The players that inspired Tracey over the years were Jenny Holliday, "it was a great challenge to get a hit off her;, Joyce Lester "an absolute legend of our game....she always took the time to chat"; and Mel Roche "for her passion for the game." As a senior member of the 2010 Aussie Spirit World Championship team, Tracey was inspired by her younger teammates.

  • Joyce Lester Shield U23 Women's Championship
    Joyce Lester Shield U23 Women’s Championship On the Queen’s Birthday weekend in June 2001 Joyce was recognised for her service to softball as a player and a coach. The records she set as a player are remarkable and will long stand in the annals of our sport. Joyce started playing softball at school and soon joined a club team playing in Brisbane Softball Association fixture. She had a long association with the ‘Devils’ club where she played until 1981/2. Her love of the game never wavered through the ensuing years as she played for two more of the Brisbane affiliated clubs, Rebels 1982/3 to 1993/4 and Bears 1994/5 and 1995/6. As a member of those club teams, Joyce played a big part in many Premiership wins. In addition to this, as a member of the Rebels team, she won three national club championships. She represented Brisbane at state championships every year from 1973 to 1995. Joyce did not believe in “rests”. She believed she should always make herself available to club, state and nation. In the National Fastpitch League, Joyce played for Brisbane team ‘Strikers’ 1991 to 1995 and ‘Diamonds’ in 1996. Joyce’s state representation began in 1973 when she was Vice Captain of the Queensland under 16 team in Adelaide. She was named Captain in 1974. Queensland U19 selection came in 1976 at the inaugural under 19 national championship held in Brisbane. Joyce had already played in open competition the previous year (1975).
