A new initiative launched by Tennis Australia is aiming to encourage more women to get involved in the administration of the sport.
Facilitated by key figures such as former pro Casey Dellacqua, the Women Leaders in Tennis program was launched in 2022 and has already seen participants graduate in every state or territory – more than 200 Australia-wide.
Dellacqua, now working as the Women and Girls Lead at Tennis NSW while juggling television commentary in her playing retirement, is helping to lead the program after being part of the gender equality task force at Tennis Australia a couple of years ago.
