We are here to help
Our officers will support your club on a range of topics to help you build relationships and develop people in your organisation.
Here are a few things to consider when starting to engage your local community:
- Does your club reflect the diversity of the local community?
- How does your club welcome new and existing members?
- Do you take your club out to events and community festivals?
- Do you promote your club to schools through Active Schools?
- Do you measure and celebrate the benefits your club is making within the community?
- Do you have a list of local partners inside and outside sport that you have strong links to?
- What are your community priorities?
- Are your community priorities written down and shared with your members?
- Does your club have a nominated person or sub-group that works on connecting with your community?
