Volunteering in 2021
If you’re on a committee for your local Club or Association, here is the place to access useful information, tools and resources to make your role FUN and EASY! Sports Community works with sporting clubs of all sizes and locations, with the mantra that “Every volunteer can be successful given the right resources and information”.
Recent Sport Australia data found a staggering 2.2 million (71%) volunteers had not returned to sport in the same capacity post COVID-19. Volunteers hold approximately 72% of roles in sport and recreation; the significant downturn in volunteer participation has had, and will continue to have, negative repercussions on sport in 2021.
Whether you are a Club President, Treasurer or Secretary, Fundraising, social media or grant applications, Sports Community provides sporting club volunteers and organisations with all the required resources, training and knowledge to succeed.
