Sporting Schools
Description
Sporting Schools is Australia’s largest participation program for all children to foster a lifelong interest in sport. Sporting Schools wants our next generation playing sport on a daily basis.
To do this, we need to act now to get our children to build a sporting life into their daily lives like millions of other Australians who make sport a daily habit.
Sporting Schools is nurturing the sporting life in the primary school years by developing the relationship between schools and local club sports.
Sporting Schools aims to:
- Target over 850,000 children
- Increase children's uptake of sport, and
- Create healthy lifetime habits
The Australian Sports Commission, in partnership with more than 30 national sporting organisations, has the resources available to help sporting clubs, coaches and teachers to run these activities and get children before, during and after school.
Nationwide online registration is free for all Australian primary schools, skilled coaches and identified sporting partners.
