Sally’s involvement in the Macquarie Sports Committee has been instrumental in her immersing herself in the strategy, grant partners, and initiatives that Macquarie Sports operates throughout the year. As a former elite athlete, Sally brings a unique perspective to the table and is able to provide insights on new initiatives. She enjoys putting on her athlete hat when appropriate, drawing from her past experiences to create innovative ideas or offer a different point of view.
Sally has found participating in volunteering initiatives with Macquarie to be an enriching experience. Through the Surfing Australia Coach Ready program, she had the opportunity to learn to surf and share this joy with young people who may not have had access to it otherwise. These initiatives have allowed Sally to contribute positively not only within Macquarie but also in the broader sporting community.
Sally is passionate about leaving a lasting impression through her involvement in the Macquarie Sports Committee. She aims to promote the benefits of sports and provide more opportunities for people to experience all that sports have to offer. Whether it’s organizing volunteer clinics for diverse communities or supporting athletes in transitioning from sports to careers within Macquarie, Sally is dedicated to enhancing the impact of Macquarie Sports. She envisions further developing the Macquarie Sports Scholarship program and introducing new initiatives that will assist retiring athletes in their career transitions.
