The 2024 True Sport Conference was presented by WA’s peak sporting body SportWest, and is supported by the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries.
The inaugural three initiatives launched with the True Sport program in September 2023 are:
- True Sport Mental Health & Wellbeing;
- True Sport Child Safeguarding, and;
- True Sport Sideline Behaviour
The program offers a long-term, sustainable approach to safeguard, support and equip the industry from now and into the future.
It’s all about creating an environment for sport in Western Australia that allows the industry to thrive and prosper for generations to come, all underpinned by WA-specific resources reflective of all WA sporting communities and their needs.
The Conference held recently, was attended by WA Cricket staff where they learnt about the range of resources available to clubs to increase their capacity on child safeguarding, sideline behaviour and the promotion of good mental health in sport.
