    The Fair Access Policy Roadmap aims to develop a statewide foundation to improve the access to, and use of, community sports infrastructure for women and girls. From 1 July 2024, all Victorian councils will need to have gender equitable access and use policies in place to be considered eligible to receive infrastructure funding. These policies will ensure that women and girls can fully participate in and enjoy the benefits of community sport, with fair opportunity and access to their local facilities.

    VICSPORT launches Child Safe Online Education program

    The Victorian sporting community, in particular grassroots clubs, have a new free and interactive way to understand and comply with the 11 Victorian Child Safe Standards following the launch of Vicsport’s Child Safe Online Education Program.

    Developed with support from Sport and Recreation Victoria (SRV) and Lander & Rogers, the education program is powered by etrainu’s Learning Management System.

    Featuring one module per Standard, users are able to delve into the content while working through practical, sport-based strategies and scenarios to help with their understanding. Breakdowns of compliance indicators, policies and procedures are also included while the modules feature the ability to save as you go, meaning you can work through the program at your own pace.

    The free and interactive program is designed to guide sport administrators, volunteers, coaches and/or officials through the Standards.
