The leadership she displayed during the great difficulties of the COVID lockdowns was inspirational,\u201d Mr Coates said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeeing Cate leading the Australian Team at the Tokyo Opening Ceremony as joint Flag Bearer with Patrick Mills said so much about her leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the Tokyo Summer Games and Beijing Winter Games taking place in close proximity, a new-look Athletes\u2019 Commission is now in place with seven new members appointed following elections after each of the Games, the AOC announced.<\/p>\n<p>Three-time Olympic kayaker, Beijing Olympic gold medallist and champion Gold Coast Lifesaver, Ken Wallace has been elected Deputy Chair while former Australian water polo captain, recently retired triple Olympian and over 300 gamer <strong>Rowie Webster<\/strong> will be a welcome addition to the Athletes Commission and was one of five new members elected after Tokyo.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_498753\" style=\"width: 574px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-498753\" data-attachment-id=\"498753\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/four-time-olympic-swimmer-cate-campbell-elected-chair-of-the-australian-olympic-committee-athletes-commission\/18th-fina-world-aquatics-championships-13\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rowie-shot-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1440\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Orange Pictures&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS-1D X Mark II&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;16-07-2019: WK waterpolo: Australia v China: Gwangju\\r#7 WEBSTER Rowie (AUS)\\rGwangju South Korea 16\\\/07\\\/2019\\rWaterpolo W13 AUS - CHN\\r18th FINA World Aquatics Championships\\rNambu University Grounds \\rPhoto \\u00a9 Orange Pictures \\\/ Deepbluemedia \\\/ Insidefoto&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1563258849&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;\\u00a9 Orange Pictures&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;200&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;200&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;18th FINA World Aquatics Championships&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"18th FINA World Aquatics Championships\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy:&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rowie-shot-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rowie-shot-1024x576.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-498753\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/rowie-shot-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"564\" height=\"403\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-498753\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HOT SHOT: Recently retired Australian water polo captain Rowie Webster brings a wealth of experience to the AOC Athleteds Commission.Photo Courtesy:<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Wallace served recently as Deputy Chef de Mission for the Tokyo Team and also as Chef de Mission for Australia\u2019s Team at the Pacific Games in Samoa in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Wallace says he\u2019s been\u00a0proud to represent the broader athletes\u2019 voice by sitting on the AOC Athletes Commission since 2012.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing elected by my peers as Deputy Chair for the Commission is an incredible honour and I feel privileged upon taking up this position,\u201d Wallace said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been lucky to have dynamic leaders on the Commission in the past, and I look forward to the challenge of trying to fill their shoes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coates said that given the opportunities and the challenges that lie ahead, he could not think of a better team in Campbell and Wallace to take the Athletes\u2019 Commission forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKen brings such passion and pride \u2013 it rubs off on people. He has brought that to the Athletes\u2019 Commission over many years and now as Deputy Chair,\u201d said Mr Coates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Commission has also demonstrated the very important capacity to listen to fellow athletes, with the survey undertaken in 2020 around athletes\u2019 rights to express themselves at Games, a prime example. That initiative showed global leadership on an important issue. The Australian Olympians\u2019 Oath is another example of leadership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe Cate, Ken and their Commission colleagues will make their mark in many different ways to build on the work that\u2019s already been undertaken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The AOC Athletes\u2019 Commission comprises five women and five men. Voting for positions on the Commission takes place after each Games \u2013 with Greta Small and Brodie Summers the most recent additions following a vote by winter Olympians at the Beijing Games.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The AOC Constitution changed last year providing for a permanent Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander presence on the Commission with two positions.
