I’d like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the significant and valuable input of past Board members who have remained willing to assist, post holding office, in any capacity required. This has ensured WPNSW has an extremely solid foundation from which to implement further change. The referees pathway initiative, the Strategic and Operational Plans as well as a planned review of the Constitution are “works in progress” but very advanced in process and indicative of the effort being exerted behind the scenes. The annual forum will again be held in September 2014 and will be integral for the ongoing input by the stakeholders and further development of the sport in NSW. In the later part of the 2014 Financial Year, Tim Hamill has been appointed to the assistant coach’s role with NSWIS, while a loss for WPNSW, we wish Tim all the best in his new role. With changes to the agreement this position currently operates under, the appointment of new personnel to the Development Officer role will allow greater involvement in the specific outcomes targeted by WPNSW in the Strategic Plan. Finally, on behalf of the Board, thank you for your support during 2013/14 and the many changes and challenges it has included.
