  • Joyce Lester OAM (Qld) Player Number # 87 235 Games for Australia
    Joyce Lester OAM (Qld) Player number # 87 235 games for Australia Representing Australia in softball from 1977 to 1996, Joyce Lester is recognised as an icon of the sport. After representing Queensland as a catcher at the U16 and U19 level, Lester was automatically selected for the Open team. She was the Queensland captain from 1983 and was a member of eight Gilley's Shield (Australian Open Women's Championship) winning teams (1975, 1983, 1984, 1987, 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996). Captain of the last seven. Lester was also a member of her club team, the Rebels, which won the 1984, 1986, and 1987 National Club Championships. In 1990 she was named the Most Valuable Player. First selected to represent Australia in 1977 as an 18 year old against New Zealand, Lester immediately established a permanent place in the team and represented Australia continuously over 19 years including 29 international competitions encompassing over 200 matches and five world championships - 1978 (El Salvador), 1982 (Taiwan), 1986 (Auckland), 1990 (Normal, Illinois), and 1994 (Newfounder, Canada) beating the four World Championship representations held by former Australian softballer, Midge Nelson. Her performance as captain of the Australian team at the 1986 World Championshi was outstanding with a batting average of .313 (in the top-10at the championship) and a perfect fielding average of 1000. This performance saw Lester recognised as the best catcher at the championship and gained her selection into the World All Star team. Lester also won All Star honours following the Intercontinental Cup in Italy in 1989. Lester recovered from serious abdominal surgery in 1992 to regain her fitness and take her place in the silver medal winning team at the Challenger Cup in Beijing.

  • Course Review Graduate Employability Indicators Report
    Accounting graduates and the capabilities that count: Perceptions of graduates, employers and Accounting academics in four Australian universities Beverley Oliver1, Barbara Whelan1, Lynne Hunt2, Sara Hammer2 [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 1 Curtin University, 2 University of Southern Queensland Abstract The higher education sector in Australia is moving rapidly towards greater accountability in regard to graduate employability outcomes. Currently, data on new graduates‘ self- reported generic skills and employment status provide the evidence base for universities to make judgements about the effectiveness of curricula in preparing students for employment. This paper discusses alternative sources of evidence, namely the Graduate Employability Indicators (GEI) - a suite of three online surveys designed to supplement current indicators. They are designed to gather and report graduate, employer and course (teaching) team perceptions of the achievement and importance of graduate capabilities within specific degree programs. In 2009 and 2010, the surveys were administered to stakeholder groups associated with Accounting degrees in four Australian universities. In total, 316 graduates, 99 employers and 51 members of the course teaching teams responded to the surveys. This report presents the aggregated results from the trial. These suggest that the fourteen capabilities at the heart of the GEI are considered important, and that both quantitative and qualitative items facilitate the reporting of essential information. Both Accounting employers and teaching staff consider that important capabilities need to be better demonstrated by new graduates. The graduates themselves identified ways in which their courses can be improved to enhance their early professional success.

  • 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.
