Sports Excellence program
Under the Sports Excellence program, the ASC provides grants to national sporting organisations based on individual strategic plans with emphasis on high performance. In 2001-02, the former Olympic Athlete Program and the Sports Assistance Scheme were replaced by the Sports Excellence program. The Sports Excellence program is managed by the Sport Funding and Evaluation program.
The ASC adopted a whole-of-sport approach to the assessment, provision and review of grants, which included assessing the role of any AIS program within sports’ high-performance plans. While the Olympic Athlete Program was specifically focused on success at the 2000 Sydney Games, the Sports Excellence program takes a broader and longer-term view based on the strategic plan of each national sporting organisation. Drawing on the successful principles of the previous programs, the Sports Excellence program incorporates an integrated plan for the preparation of national teams in the Summer and Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Commonwealth Games and World Championships.
In addition to managing the Sports Excellence program, the Sport Funding and Evaluation program coordinated a ‘case management’ approach to determine the range of services and assistance each national sporting organisation would be offered by the ASC.
In line with the Government’s Tough on Drugs in Sport Strategy, the group works with national sporting organisations to ensure that they comply with the strategy through the implementation of appropriate anti-doping policies and procedures.
