National Sports Convention 2021

Yet again an event that will unfortunately not be able to go ahead in person, however our Chairman, Chris Heverin and Director Lisa Dowsett were invited to participate on panels for the online version proceeding later this month. They both took the opportunity to drive home the importance of mass participation events, the need for government support and how we return safely from COVID whilst re engaging and supporting communities.

Chris joined the likes of Sports Australia, Sport New Zealand and Cricket Australia to discuss ‘A Bold Agenda for Re-Engaging the Community and to Grow Participation post COVID’ whilst Lisa presented alongside Football Federation Australia and Hockey NSW on Major Participation Events - How to Make Them Sustainable Post COVID-19 to Benefit Participation and Local Communities.

The National Sports & Physical Activity Convention runs from 11 November through to 9 December with weekly virtual conference sessions. Find out more and register to attend.
