Tennis NSW held its Annual General Meeting
(AGM) last night in a hybrid format with members able to attend both online and
in person at Sydney Olympic Park Tennis Centre (SOPTC).

The online aspect of the meeting was offered
as a COVID measure and to provide options for the Tennis NSW membership to
attend either physically or online. The meeting at SOPTC was held in a COVID
safe environment with physical distancing and other COVID protocols in place allowing
the membership to participate in person. This format saw an increase in member
participation in the meeting.

Following the elections for Board Director
positions, the following individuals were elected to the Tennis NSW Board of
Directors:

Ron Heinrich – Metropolitan nominated
Director

Rob Nienhuis – Court Operator nominated Director

Brett Bevan – Country nominated Director

The Board and Management of Tennis NSW would
like to take this opportunity to thank Ryan Henry, Voyager Tennis for his time
on the Board. Whilst, they also wish to recognise the service of Andrew Mitton,
Bathurst Tennis Centre, as the Country nominated Board director, for the past
10 years of service to the Board. Alongside his time on the Board, Andrew has
continued to support Tennis Country as former Chair and member of the
Committee.

Furthermore, the Board and Management
would like to thank outgoing President, Kim Warwick and Country director Helen
Magill who have provided a tremendous level of service during their time on the
Board.

The following special resolutions were
also moved during the meeting:

for more than three 3-year terms in any 12-year period.
