LCA’S DON HAMMOND NAMED AS FINAL RTG JUDGE

Leagues Clubs Australia CEO Don Hammond has been named the final judge for the first Regulating the Game (RTG) Global Awards, which will be presented during the RTG 2026 Gala Dinner in Sydney.

Don’s selection adds a strong community and governance perspective to the judging group. His background in supporting Rugby League and guiding clubs on governance and community engagement complements the expertise of the other panel members, who come from international integrity, legal, and responsible-gambling organisations. His inclusion further reinforces the awards’ emphasis on purpose-driven leadership and industry-wide responsibility.

The RTG Global Awards will include six categories spanning leadership, safer gambling, compliance, technology, community impact, and emerging talent.
