- Tackling the Stigma, A Conversation About the Role of Sport in Mental Health, 7:00pm Friday 29th May
The physical benefits of playing sport are well known.
But what we don’t often think about is the fact that there are a multitude of mental health benefits obtained by participating in sport and active recreation.
In a time where restrictions have meant that clubs cannot operate in the same way we are used to, this is bound to impact members in different ways.

- Member Protection Information Officer – Member Protection Information Officers play an important role in sport. They provide information and guidance on complaints procedures – they are the ‘go to’ person if you want to discuss problems at your club/association, particularly if you are considering making a formal complaint.
- Fair Play Code, 5th May 2020
The Victorian Government’s Fair Play Code – a code of conduct for sport and recreation, outlines the standards of behaviour expected for everyone involved in sport and recreation.
We’ve created a checklist for clubs to utilise during the session, which can be viewed here.
