Last week, Sport Integrity Australia delivered the last of three Managing Integrity in Sport courses which were hosted by the Office of Sport for our State Sporting Organisations. The courses stood out for the comprehensive approach to maintaining the highest standards of integrity within the sporting world and covered topics such as Safeguarding, Mental Health and Wellbeing, Anti-Doping and Competition Manipulation, Managing Complaints and Disputes.

Earlier in the week, Office of Sport Core Executive with representatives from each of their departments spent time volunteering at Foodbank Australia From dividing 1,995kgs of carrots into 3kg bags to boxing up nearly 600 cartons of plant-based milks, this experience had it all! Altogether the Office of Sport team packed and sorted 4,605kgs of produce, enough to make 8,289 meals. As part of this initiative, 75kgs of pantry items were collected from our offices, centres and venues and donated to Foodbank. A fantastic experience for our staff to contribute to Foodbank Australia, as they work to help those in need across NSW and the ACT.

The aim of this initiative is to build a pipeline of board ready female leaders to support gender equity on boards and close the gender gap amongst coaches in pathway and elite coaching roles.
Another cohort of 25 current and aspiring sport leaders and directors have completed the Sport NSW Get on Board Program. During the program participants completed the AICD Governance Foundations for Not-for-Profit Directors Course taking them through strategy, finance and governance for sporting boards and organisations.

The Office of Sport has provided $250,000 to Sport NSW to deliver the Female Leadership and Fair Play Project. This will expand on current programs to increase the number of female leaders and coaches in NSW sport. It aims to drive outcomes for women in sport, in governance, as coaches, or building the next generation of female leaders.
Now in its 5th year and has supported 150 female coaches, the 2024 Sport NSW led, Fast Track for Female Coaches Program was completed in June with 39 female coaches participating. Focusing on skills required for coaching beyond the technical and tactical of the sport, participants were given access to coaches and experts across a range of areas and levels to support their learning, while providing an important network for female coaches. Listen to what this cohort of coaches said about the Fast Track for Female Coaches Program.

This year, the Office of Sport Executive Team and staff will be volunteering at Foodbank, the largest hunger relief charity in Australia. As part of this initiative, we're collecting pantry items such as tinned food, pasta etc. that will be donated to Foodbank later in the month. To kick-start our collection our Sydney Olympic Park office held a winter warmer lunch. A special mention to our Social Club for organising the lunch and for all staff who brought in a dish to share!
