SUMMARY:Women in Leadership - Sports Management - Event Invitation
DESCRIPTION:The National Council of Women of Queensland Inc welcome you to attend the first of our series discussing non-traditional pathways.

In her nine -year tenure in female football\, she has cemented Queensland’s reputation as one of the powerhouse states for women’s AFL. \nBy establishing the Brisbane Lions inaugural women’s team\, who won the AFLW Premiership in 2021\, Breeanna has created a full playing pathway for the women and girls of Queensland. With access to this elite\, high performing environment\, females are no longer forced to abandon a game they love due to lack of professional opportunity. \nAwarded the AFL Football Woman of the Year award in 2018\, Breeanna’s work is slowly dismantling age-old thinking around female representation in sport\, to create a more level\, gender-balanced\, playing field.  “In my current role\, I am able to combine my passion for AFL with helping women to achieve equality and success – both on and off the sports field.” \n  \nAlison Lyons (CEO of Hockey QLD)\nAlison was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of Hockey Queensland in September 2019. She has 15 years working in the sports industry both in Australia and overseas. Before moving back to Queensland she spent 7 years with Gymnastics Victoria and in that time progressed her career from Participation Coordinator to General Manager then on to the CEO role at HQ. Alison is the deputy Chair of Qsport and has held a previous board position with Softball Victoria. \nAlison is a mentor in the Women Sport Australia mentoring program and is passionate about advocating for more women in leadership positions. Alison grew up in Far North Queensland but has spent much of her adult life travelling\, she is excited to be back in Queensland especially with the 2032 Olympics on the horizon.\n  \nKate Davies (CEO of  Netball QLD and the QLD Firebirds)\nIn January Kate Davies was appointed Chief Executive Officer\, Netball Queensland and the Queensland Firebirds. She is particularly looking forward to making a contribution to the Firebirds\,\nconsidered to be one of the most iconic sporting teams in Queensland. \nDavies has extensive experience across the public\, private and not-for-profit sectors\, including Senior Executive roles with local and state government\, Cricket Australia and Queensland Cricket. \n  \nModerator\nRonda Nix OAM\nThe Moderator for the evening will be Ronda Nix\, NCWQ Committee Member and Bursary Coordinator for the Queensland Government Office for Women Bursaries. \nA former sports administrator and sports official\, Ronda was awarded an OAM in The Order of Australia in 2013 for her service to hockey \n  \n  \n  \nProceeds to Support Ukrainian women in QLD\nAll profits from this event will go to supporting Ukrainian women in QLD through Ukrainian Community of QLD. \nThe UCQ Inc Ukraine Crisis and Humanitarian Assistance Council is raising funds to be able to provide urgent care and to meet specific needs for Ukrainian refugees\, such as specialist medical treatment\, crisis accommodation\, disability equipment and foods etc.  \nThis is especially important whilst Ukrainian refugees do not currently have medical access\, education access and the right to work as they arrive to Australia. \nFor more information\, refer to their website. \nExtra donations for this cause can also be made via the booking link (not tax deductible)\, or visit their website directly. \n  \nGet Your Ticket Today!
