The NSWTA Board has decided to initiate an independent Governance and Operating Model Review of the organisation. This decision underscores our commitment to continuous improvement in governance and operational models, which are essential for the success of high-performing sporting organisations. As the sports sector faces evolving social, economic, technological, and political challenges, it is crucial to clarify our purpose and identify the most effective governance and operating models. Despite significant changes in the sporting landscape over the past decade, the governance and operating model for Touch Football in NSW has remained largely unchanged. To secure the sport’s future success, the NSWTA Board has resolved to undertake a thorough review of our Governance and Operating Model.

We’re thrilled to highlight the incredible female coaches in sport! In June 2024, we were fortunate to have several female coaches participate in the Sport NSW-led Fast Track for Female Coaches Program. This program, completed by 39 dedicated women, focused on skills beyond the technical and tactical aspects of coaching. Participants gained insights from experienced coaches and experts across various fields, creating a valuable support network for female coaches. Hear what this inspiring group, including Belinda Thomson from Taren Point Touch Association and Nicole Grose from Dubbo Touch Association, had to say about their experience in the Fast Track for Female Coaches Program. #WomenInSport #FemaleCoaches #CoachingExcellence #FastTrack #SportNSW #Empowerment #Leadership #SupportNetwork
