Condo to head Cats’ AFLW program

Geelong Cats have announced the appointment of a new Head of AFLW.

Dr Dominique Condo will step into the role following a three-year stint at Richmond Football Club as performance dietitian and Performance Science and Nutrition manager.

Before heading to Richmond, Dr Condo worked at the Cats for six years. She rejoins the club after the departure of assistant general manager of Football Brett Johnson, who has overseen the women’s program since late 2020.

Dr Condo is also a senior lecturer in Sports Nutrition at Deakin and co-director of the university’s Centre for Sport Research.

Geelong Cats CEO Steve Hocking said the club was “excited” to have Dr Condo rejoin the Cats in her new role.

“Dom was a highly respected, much-loved, and integral member of our women’s program during its inception,” he said.

“In parallel both Dom and our program have grown in experience, and we are thrilled to welcome Dom back to lead our AFLW team as we chase greatness in this next stage of our evolution..

“Dom has a strong skill set and excellent experience working in women’s football, she is well respected in the industry and has a great passion for working with and supporting athletes through their career, and we look forward to the positive impact Dom will have.”

Dr Condo will start in the role at the beginning of June.

The club also recently appointed former Cats player and life member Renee Garing as Player Development manager and ex-Carlton player Tennille Cuttiford as High Performance manager.
