Sports community went above and beyond in working with us to provide development opportunities for our sporting clubs. Their vast array of options allowed us to hold both a face to face session and webinars - this was pivotal in reaching a wider network of people. In addition, sports community were very accommodating with discussion topics we wanted to present to our clubs, and offered to design content to reflect our needs. Their friendly and approachable staff made the experience very positive and I could not recommend them highly enough - definitely would utilise their service again.

“Aside from sharing their own extensive knowledge, Sports Community's webinar series are a fantastic way to engage with others in the industry and hear case studies of what has worked in other councils and sporting organisations. "I have taken at least one new idea out of each session and there is always a great balance of practical tips that you can utilise straight away, and thought-provoking concepts that lead to new thinking. "Sports Community's commitment to taking on feedback and always improving ensure that the webinars only get better and that they always provide a great engaging experience.”

Emma GallagherWomen's Club Development Co-ordinator, Cricket Victoria

“Archery Australia contracted Sports Community to assist in developing and producing Documentation to update its National Coaching Program. "In conjunction with the AA National Coaching Committee Chair, work undertaken was in the following areas:

Develop framework documentation to ultimately assist AA in seeking NCAS accreditation
Review process for delivery of coach syllabuses
Develop in-course workbooks
Develop in-course presentation material
Develop online learning modules
Develop assessment processes

"Sports Community not only utilised information supplied by Archery Australia (ie current procedures and coaching resources ) but researched additional information from outside sources to assist in compiling framework and workbook documentation. Archery Australia followed the general process outline in NCAS framework toolkits.”

Stephen JennisonArchery Australia NCC Chair

"It’s been so great working with Steve and the Sports Community team on a variety of Association Development training and leadership opportunities throughout 2015. "Their expertise and knowledge about sport, not for profits and community has been refreshing and our members and associations have certainly benefited from this. "The best thing about Sports Community is that they listened to our organisation’s needs and tailor made training opportunities to match. We look forward to continuing our work with Sports Community”

Amber KosterGeneral Manager, Community & Facilities Development, Netball Victoria

"I have really enjoyed the Sports Community webinars and found them valuable and informative. "It has captured some real challenges that are faced by the sporting community with some simple yet effective skills to pass onto our clubs."

Therrie SilvelloRecreation Officer, Penrith City Council

"The whole team at Sports Community has been great to work with. "They are always positive and quick to reply. One-hour webinars every couple weeks are perfect as they don't take too much time out of your busy work schedule. "Presenters of the webinars make potential complex issues quite simple and the recordings of the webinars are a great idea. "They have been helpful a few times when I have gone back and reviewed some of the content."

John DavisSport & Club Development Co-ordinator, Cycling New South Wales

“The New South Wales Fencing Association engaged Sports Community to present a course to our coaches to help them understand the wider environment in which young people are learning the art of fencing, or any sport. "The session delivered by Amanda Vanderwal - 360 Degrees of Coaching - fully met our expectations. "Amanda took our coaches on a tour of the many factors that influence the lives of our young athletes, not least the impact of social media, and helped them to place their work with their students in a broader context. "As a successful professional coach herself, Amanda was able to pass on what she has learned to our coaches in a way they could easily relate to and adapt to their own teaching. "All of our coaches who attended the session say they learned from it and we intend to make 360 Degrees of Coaching a key component of our coach training program.”

Kaye MahoneyPresident, New South Wales Fencing Association

"We have worked with Sports Community on a number of projects, however most recently they assisted with the recording and production of three online training videos. "Joe made us feel comfortable in our delivery and the turnaround time was exactly as quoted. "The end product was exactly what we’d hoped for and I’d have no hesitation in recommending their services."

Stacey O'NeillParticipation Development Manager, Netball Victoria

"Bowls Victoria has enjoyed a successful partnership with Sports Community to develop and deliver a whole-of-sport club training program over the past two years. "The program was managed well and to expectations with training programs staged in metropolitan and regional areas across Victoria. "Very positive responses were obtained from attendees with benefits being experienced by clubs virtually straight away. "Bowls Victoria is confident recommendations in respect to our relationships with Sports Community are based on accurate feedback from our client base and our own individual dealings through its management and staff."

Graeme BridgeChief Executive, Bowls Victoria

“The Yarra Ranges Council has a strong history with Sports Community, who has delivered our annual Sports Club Training Program for the past four years. "We have received nothing but positive feedback from our local clubs who attend, most often commenting that the workshops are well worth the time to attend. "Working in partnership with Sports Community, the Yarra Ranges has been able to craft the workshops to cover particular topics relevant to Yarra Ranges sports clubs. "I highly recommend Sports Community as a valuable resource for both local government and sports club volunteers.”

Recreation, Development and Projects OfficerYarra Ranges Council

"We are very grateful to Sports Community for their help in our Strategic Planning Process. "They were able to assist us from the beginning and made sure all of the important groups were represented. They led a positive and effective meeting that resulted in very strong goals for our club. "The stakeholders of our club have also reacted positively to our direction thanks to the additional communication. We are excited to continue to work together to see our objectives are achieved."

Allison DillionSecretary, Mornington Football Netball Club

"I have worked with Steve and Sports Community for a number of years and have found them very accommodating, relaxed and knowledgeable. "The workshops Sports Community has delivered have been at the perfect pitch for grassroots clubs, full of practical and easy to implement suggestions. "Sports Community’s online learning makes it even easier for clubs in country areas to access training and information. Totally recommend Sports Community."
