Clubs and organisations

Becoming Involved

Organisations interested in delivering junior sport and structured physical activity must be recognised* by the Active After-school Communities program. Before individuals representing the organisation can become deliverers for the program they must satisfactorily meet registration requirements.  (See Become a community coach menu option above)

Each semester, schools and CCB approved OSHCS, identify the types of activities they would like delivered to the children participating within the program.  Activities are generally selected in consultation with the children and or teachers involved, to identify what would be the most suitable program to engage traditionally inactive children.   Once these activities have been identified, AASC regional coordinators will facilitate links between local sports clubs, community organisations and private providers to identify suitable deliverers to meet these needs.

*This does not refer to recognition of a National Sporting Organisation by the Australian Sports Commission. See Supporting Sport for further information on recognition eligibility criteria. http://www.ausport.gov.au/supporting/funding/recogntiion
