Sport Australia has been working with Judo Australia to help transform it into a highly effective and capable National Sporting Organisation.
In 2014, Sport Australia identified a range of concerns about the administration of Judo in Australia particularly in the areas of governance, finance, legal, strategy and member protection. 26 recommendations were made to enhance the sport, with Judo Australia’s leadership team working together to implement these changes.
Sport Australia played a significant role during this process, providing support, guidance and resourcing.
Judo Australia’s leadership team, which incorporated State Presidents and Boards, worked together to activate the blueprint and drive significant reform to deliver enhanced outcomes and a whole-of-sport long term vision.
Sport Australia also helped Judo Australia document and highlight the learnings, benefits and outcomes.
