Increasing women’s and girls’ participation helps sport clubs to grow membership, boost revenue and improve performance by expanding the talent pool. Inclusive clubs attract more players, supporters, and sponsors while fostering stronger teams and leadership pathways. Clubs that are diverse and welcoming to people of all genders and backgrounds build positive role models, stronger communities and more successful sporting cultures.
To support this, Council has recently adopted its Allocation of Sport and Recreation Facilities Policy and accompanying Fair Access in Sport Action Plan.
