Canadian athlete, Suzanne Weckend Dill;, has been appointed to the Commonwealth Games Federation Executive Board as the Athlete Representative.

She replaces New Zealand netballer, Lesley Rumball, who has retired after her four year term. 

Weckend Dill, a two-time Commonwealth Games representative, competed at her home Games in Victoria in 1994 as a swimmer and then again in Melbourne in 2006 as a triathlete.

She has also developed a strong sports administrative career role after her retirement as an athlete. Earlier this year she was appointed for a second term as the athlete representative on theCommonwealth Games Canada Board having also spent three years on the Triathlon Canada Board.

"I'm excited about contributing my skills, experience and passion to strengthen theCommonwealth Games movement on behalf of athletes from all 71 nations and territories," Weckend Dill said.
