A key factor in the ongoing success of Table Tennis Victoria (TTV) is to ensure it has the best possible people governing the organisation. The TTV Board has implemented the following process to help identify suitably qualified community members and individuals to fill board, committee and working group vacancies as they arise.

TTV encourages applications from female candidates to ensure we meet the Victorian Government quota of 40% female representation on Victorian State Sporting Association Boards although, as TTV may be looking to fill multiple positions, all genders are welcome to submit their interest.

You can express interest by completing this form. Please note the Board EOI Form will close at 5pm AEST on Friday 6 October. 

Expressions of interest will be considered by the TTV Nominations Committee.

This expression of interest process is separate to the director election process under the TTV Constitution.

For further information, please contact Gen Dohrmann, CEO of Table Tennis Victoria on ceo@tabletennisvic.org.au.
