11. Challenges at Representative Level
User Pay System so limited by finance pressures - CHA implements measures to assist but no scholarships etc.
Expensive sending teams away and having flexibility to ensure the team is not prejudiced with withdrawals add to the financial pressures
Continually looking at ways to mitigate costs and balance opportunity
Coaches/Managers and Officials usually come from the parents of the players – especially in Under11/13 and 15
Cairns Hockey Programs that offer assistance and support are readily available but not always used to best result
Look at refresh of Academy Programs to support the talent pathways
Capacity Building within clubs are not always at the same level and we invite player/coaches within Academy Program to assist this
Issues raised in 2018 have been reviewed including Cairns Teams placing at State Champs – coaching appointments and supporting pathways with new recommendations

12. The Way Ahead
Cairns Board and Senior Staff have been working through the challenges and have finalized reviewed program for This includes
Creation of a High Performance Advisory Group appointed by the CHA Board to assist in oversight
New Selection Policies and Guidelines to address some of the 2018 challenges and assist in the transparency and support process
Confirm looking to rebuild and identify people for the future within this process
3 year plan with targets/measurement/reviews and reports will be looked discussed
