We collaborate with local councils to strengthen the support available to community sporting clubs. Our dynamic workshops and presentations address key areas like governance, strategic planning, and volunteer management. Tailoring our content to your clubs’ specific needs, we help create a thriving, well-supported sporting community that meets strategic goals and tackles everyday challenges.
Volunteer Management
Volunteers are the life blood of sporting clubs. Our engaging workshops offer insights into attracting and retaining volunteers, understanding different volunteer types, and overcoming barriers. Based on research findings and practical experience we help clubs build a positive volunteer culture and develop effective volunteer strategies.
Balancing the Strategic & Operational
Leaders in sporting clubs often juggle daily operational tasks and long-term planning. Our workshops help clubs identify the best governance structure for them, clarify the distinction between strategic and operational roles, how to balance tasks, and conduct effective meetings. We aim to shift their focus towards strategic leadership, enhancing the club’s growth and sustainability.
Strategic Planning
We work with clubs to develop tailored strategic plans. Our one-on-one sessions lead to fully formed strategic plans, while our group workshops empower clubs to create their own plans with our expert guidance. Our One-on-one sessions include stakeholder engagement, defining the club’s vision, mission, values, and performing a SWOT analysis. We help establish key pillars, goals, and strategies, and provide a foundation for a Stakeholder Engagement Plan and Operational Plan to support the club’s growth and sustainability.
Getting the Most out of your Meetings
Effective meetings are important to a club’s success. Our workshops cover meeting purposes, roles, procedures, and best practice. We provide tips on facilitating productive discussions, keeping meetings on track, and maximising their impact, dealing with challenging people and moving the business of the club forward.
Managing Conflicts & Complaints
Navigating issues and conflicts are crucial for clubs. We explore why conflicts and complaints may occur in the first place and discuss prevention and management strategies. We provide guidance on the National Integrity Framework, helping clubs handle conflicts and compliance challenges effectively, ensuring preparedness and resilience.
Board Training & Induction
With frequent board member turnover, we offer training and induction services to support new members and equip clubs to take on this crucial role moving forward. Our workshops aim to support clubs to focus on governance, succession planning, and ensuring there is a smooth transition to maintain club stability.
