TOM HOAD AM || May Campbell Medal Recipient 2026.
For our Melville community, this honour feels deeply personal.
Tom is the second Melville Club member to be recognised with this accolade for their incredible impact on the sport of Water Polo on Western Australia and Australia, with David Neesham OAM being recognised in 2024.
Tom has been a cornerstone of Melville Water Polo for decades โ not just through his personal playing or coaching achievements, but through the people he has shaped, supported, and inspired.
The May Campbell Medal recognises extraordinary service to Australian water polo, and there are few more deserving recipients.
Generations of athletes have benefited from Tomโs knowledge, leadership, and belief in what this club and our Country could become.
His legacy is not only in medals or results โ it lives in the culture, standards, and spirit of Melville and Australian Water Polo.
We are proud, grateful, and honoured to celebrate this moment with you.
Congratulations Tom.
