(Sydney, 4 March 2026) Pont3 has announced the appointment of Yael Reed as Head of Partnerships, overseeing the TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS and the company’s broader sponsorship portfolio.
Reed brings extensive experience across Australia’s sporting landscape, having held senior roles at Netball NSW, Football Australia and, most recently, as a Marketing Consultant at Newcastle Jets FC.

At Pont3, an industry leader in delivering premier sporting events including the TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS and the Real Insurance Harbour 10k, Reed will lead the organisation’s commercial and sponsorship strategy.

“I’m incredibly excited to join Pont3 at such a pivotal time, particularly given the rapid rise in running and the growing interest in the TCS Sydney Marathon,” Reed said.
“I’ve long admired Pont3’s commitment to strong partnerships and look forward to growing the scale, impact and commercial value of its events alongside an exceptional team and partner portfolio.”
