The Tasmania Academy of Leadership and Sport (TALS) is celebrating another student success story, with graduate Cameron securing the role of Golf Experience Manager at Moore Park Golf Course in Sydney.
From Study to Industry
During his time at TALS, Cameron discovered a passion for the event management and operations side of sport, with a particular interest in golf. Through a combination of classroom learning and hands-on placements, he built expertise in event coordination, stakeholder communication, budgeting, logistics, and delivering first-class experiences for participants and spectators.
“TALS’ dual diploma equipped me with a strong foundation in emotional intelligence, critical thinking, WHS compliance, and sports management. Those skills have enabled me to lead with empathy, make strategic decisions, ensure safety, and optimise operations at Moore Park Golf.”
Stepping Into a Leadership Role
At Moore Park, Cameron is now responsible for overseeing the planning and delivery of events, managing client relationships, and ensuring seamless day-to-day operations. It’s a role that allows him to apply his leadership and management training in a dynamic, professional environment.
One of the highlights of his time at TALS was the variety of learning opportunities:
“I loved the diverse, practical units in the dual diploma, particularly those on emotional intelligence and sports management. They empowered me to build strong team dynamics and create exceptional experiences for players and staff alike.”
The Power of Networking
Cameron’s career move also underscores the importance of connections in the sports industry.
“Networking through TALS connected me with industry professionals, directly leading to my role at Moore Park Golf. It reinforced for me how important it is to cultivate meaningful professional relationships.”
A Career Pathway in Action
Cameron’s appointment demonstrates the breadth of opportunities open to TALS students. His journey from study in Tasmania to a leadership role interstate highlights both the transferability of skills gained through the program and the career pathways available to students who are ready to take their next step.
“I’m incredibly excited about my future at Moore Park Golf, where I apply critical thinking and WHS principles daily. I’m deeply grateful for TALS’ comprehensive training, which has equipped me to excel in this leadership-driven career.”
