It is with pleasure that I can release Inverloch Windsurfing Club?s Strategic Plan 2014-16. Over the past 12 months committee members have been working very hard to produce a strategy that has relevance to our member?s and stakeholders while also articulating a pathway of sustainability and embedding the principals of good governance within our club, sport and the wider Inverloch community.
There are many people that need to be individually thanked for making this strategy come to life, particularly the current and former committees. I would like to say thank you to them for all the hard work and their commitment in making this strategy a reality.
The strategy is divided into five priorities areas and 33 broad strategies with deliverable targets. The strategy will become part of the overall operating framework for IWC, linking the clubs strategic direction with our members. This was one of the most important elements identified when developing our strategy and was considered to be one of the most fundamental requirements that the strategy should include.
This is an exciting time for IWC and as you read through the strategy you will see that we have set the bar quite high on deliverables to our members and stakeholders in the coming years. I hope you all read our plan, be inspired a little and become an active member of the IWC continuing to make it a great community sports club.
As identified key stakeholders, hard copies and corresponding cover letters have been sent to to the following people/organisations:
Mr Steve Walker, CEO, Yachting Victoria
Mr Brett Morris ? President, Australian Windsurfing Association
Mr Steve Coward ? President, Windsurfing Victoria
Mr Howard Scott, Recreation & Open Space Planner, Bass Coast Shire Council
Ms Jerril Rechter ? VicHealth CEO
Mr Mr Barry Switzer, EO GippSport

Big congratulations to the IWC committee and to the team leader on this project Dan Poynton. Huge slabs of time went into this and a great plan has been formulated for the club and committee to follow 
This is a good idea, no doubt someone has an academic background.. I was quite surprised to see a literature review!
Very Impressive, a great model for all future windsurfing clubs. Have been thinking of a mandurah/peel windsurfing club for a while, this might inspire me........... tho dont hold breath waiting could be dangerous to your health
A thoughtful and well written report which I very much enjoyed reading. I come across a few plans in my work and they are usually very dull. Great work Dan and committee!! You have raised the bar for the whole sport in this country. It is a privilege to be part of such a vibrant club.
Very impressive. I am sure that with such a focused approach you will make great progress. Good luck!
