Club Respect is a national program that delivers strong practical guidance for sports clubs to build and maintain a deep culture of respect. Our workshops focus on how to build a culture of respect, determining values, knowing the right actions to take and how to deal with issues.

Thanks to The William Buckland Foundation and the Edward Wilson Trust, we were able to build our Club Respect website that holds all our knowledge. Our website shows you how to develop a culture of respect within your clubs and provides a portal, the Panel of Expertise, where anyone can ask a question of our 12 sports club specialist. The website is free and accessible for everyone in sports clubs and community groups.

Building on the information from the website, and with support from Spicers, Club Respect now delivers workshops for sports organisations and local government councils around Australia, targeting sports club administrators, such as club committee members, administrators, leaders and coaches.
