It is with much sadness that the IC of Australia notes the passing of our esteemed member Brad Drewett.

Brad was a fine player, world class tennis administrator and a loving family man.

He was a real gentleman who embodied the spirit of the IC through his love of tennis and the friendships therein.

He will be greatly missed in Australia, and indeed in the entire global tennis community, where his contribution has been enormous.

 The Prague 4-Nations event is taking place again this year from 19 to 23 June - and with sponsorship from a new IC partner, CQS.  The ICs participating this year are: Canada, Russia, USA and the hosts, the Czech Republic.
