For those who want to go the extra mile and accelerate gender equality outcomes in the club – we recommend the Act@Play program.

Act@Play is a 6-month club-wide cultural change program specifically designed to reflect the nature and dynamics of a sporting organisation. We work in partnership with a club to enable female-friendly spaces and places through quality and sustainable actions.

Act@Play involves helping clubs develop and implement a Gender Equality Action Plan and participate in club-wide bystander training. To date, the follow sports clubs have completed Act@Play:

  • AFL Goldfields
  • Ballarat Basketball
  • Minyip Murtoa Football Netball Club
  • Horsham Basketball
