Royal Life Saving Australia is pleased to announce we have been selected as a member of the Play Well Affiliate program.
As an Affiliate of Play Well – Australia's Sport Participation Strategy, we will work with the Australian Sports Commission to create a connected and collaborative sport industry that supports all organisations to provide safe, welcoming, inclusive and fun sporting experiences for all.
We will contribute to the implementation of the strategy through delivering aligned programs and activities and are committed to supporting the sector to achieve Play Well’s objectives and vision of ‘Everyone has a place in sport’.
We’ve made some great progress as we celebrate one year since the strategy was launched and we’re delighted to partner with these organisations who play a key role in helping Australians be active.
The ASC looks forward to working with the Affiliates to complement the ongoing work with the National Sporting Organisations and National Sporting Organisations for people with Disabilities to bring the Play Well strategy to life around Australia.
These sport and recreation organisations are aligned with our mission to create safe, welcoming, inclusive and fun sporting experiences and will help us deliver on our Horizon One outcomes which includes creating a connected, collaborative and aligned sporting sector.
Richard McInnes, ASC Executive General Manager Sport and Community Capability and Chair of the Play Well Leadership Group.
We’re proud to be involved with Play Well and look forward to playing a meaningful role in all levels of sport.
Through this partnership, we aim to help to ensure that no child or adult misses out on the skills needed to enjoy the water safely, and to boost community access to great local swimming pools, which we know are vital for fun, physical activity, and bringing people and communities together.
