Kris Mannix – Club Service Officer

The VIC office would like to welcome Kris Mannix.

Kris comes from a small country town in NSW named Balranald; roughly 85km north of Swan Hill. He is a keen sports lover and a one-eyed Collingwood supporter (we won't hold this against him).

Kris has recently graduated with a Bachelor of Sports Management from Federation University and despite being new to Australian Sailing, he already fits well within the team. Kris will be working in the Vic office as a Club Services Officer with a focus on Discover Sailing Centres and club development.

You can contact Kris at kris.mannix@sailing.org.au
