FROM NETBALL TO PARA

PARALYMPICS Australia has appointed Catherine Clark as its new CEO for the departing Lynne Anderson.

Clark will depart her current role as Netball Queensland CEO in December to take up her new appointment as chief executive of Paralympics Australia from 2022.

Anderson led Paralympics Australia for six years before announcing in July she was stepping away after the Paralympics in Japan.

Clark will remain with Netball Queensland until the end of the year before joining Paralympics Australia in January.

Netball Queensland chief operating officer Mike Anderson will act as interim CEO until a new boss is appointed, ensuring a smooth transition period and continuity of operations.

Clark said she had “absolutely loved my time with Netball Queensland”.
