TRI NSW new president

NEW CEO at Triathlon NSW

Posted:: 26 Jul 2006


I’m delighted to report that we have secured the services of Peter Tate, who will join Tri NSW as Chief Executive Officer on 28 August.

Peter, who holds a surveying degree from the University of Newcastle, has always been a keen sportsman, playing soccer, cricket, rugby league, hockey and baseball. He has held all imaginable club positions over a sporting administrative career spanning two decades, and has been employed in the Sport & Rec industry since post-graduating with a Master of Sports Management at UTS.

Stints include Sports Officer at Central Queensland University in Rockhampton, and Sport & Rec QLD Regional Adviser for a vast geographical area in Central Qld. Returning to NSW as CAMS State Manager for two years, Peter was responsible for 600+ motor sport events annually and the sustainability of 107 affiliated clubs. Most recently Peter has been employed by the Federal Govt to develop regional projects across the Sydney metropolitan basin. This role involved funding liaison with Local Government Authorities and state/regional sporting organisations, specifically where sporting infrastructure projects are concerned.

Additionally, Peter has been a Board Member of the NSW Sports Federation since 2003 (alongside TA’s CEO Andrew Hamilton) and has chaired the Officials Advisory Committee during that period of time.

Peter brings vigour, passion and vast experience to Tri NSW. Although his only taste as a competitor has been at a novice Triathlon in Mackay, I am confident that Peter will make a substantial contribution to our sport.
