SHEPPARTON is set to welcome a special guest this month, as Australian tennis icon Jelena Dokic graces the Greater Shepparton Business Network (GSBN) event on Wednesday, March 20. Dokic, a household name in the late 90s and early 2000s, will be sharing her remarkable journey of resilience and survival, both on and off the court.
Dokic, who had a meteoric rise in tennis, reaching Wimbledon’s quarterfinals at 16 and ranking fourth worldwide by 19, will be promoting her new book, Fearless: Finding the Power to Thrive. The book delves into her battles with mental health, domestic violence, and the tumultuous world of professional tennis.
The event, hosted by GSBN at The Woolshed at Emerald Bank, will offer attendees a two-course dinner and an opportunity to network. Dokic, who has transitioned into tennis analysis and commentary, will deliver a keynote address, sharing insights from her life and career.
GSBN, a platform for networking and collaboration, encourages all community members to attend. Discounted tickets are available for GSBN members. Tickets can be purchased through Riverlinks and include a meal, a welcome drink, and the chance to hear Dokic’s inspiring story.
With Dokic’s visit predicted to be a sell-out, prompt booking is advised to secure your place at this unique event. To make a booking call 5832 9511 or visit riverlinksvenues.com.au
