SPORTSHORTS TERMS 3 & 4 - 2008Michael Wright MPMinister <strong>for</strong> <strong>Recreation</strong>,<strong>Sport</strong> <strong>and</strong> RacingWelcome to the second edition of <strong>Sport</strong>shorts <strong>for</strong> 2008.Recently, the <strong>Office</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Recreation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Sport</strong> partnered with Uni<strong>SA</strong> to gain a betterunderst<strong>and</strong>ing of children’s attitudes with respect to sport. When children were asked abouttheir sporting involvement, the most significant finding that applied across the board to primary<strong>and</strong> secondary boys <strong>and</strong> girls, city <strong>and</strong> country, was the desire to play with friends. Further,being “good” at sport wasn’t the key motivating factor we thought it would be. Playing withfriends <strong>and</strong> having parental support were the two most important factors from a child’sperspective.As parents <strong>and</strong> teachers, it is important to keep these findings in mind when planning <strong>for</strong> <strong>and</strong>providing junior sport. The upcoming Olympics <strong>and</strong> Paralympics provide an ideal opportunity tointroduce new sports <strong>and</strong> activities <strong>for</strong> children to explore <strong>and</strong> have fun with.The excitement of the Beijing Olympics <strong>and</strong> Paralympics is sure to overflow into the schoolcorridors, courts <strong>and</strong> ovals. This provides a great opportunity <strong>for</strong> the whole school community tocheer on our athletes <strong>and</strong> share the pride of their achievements. South Australians will berepresented in many sports including rowing, kayaking, basketball, beach volleyball <strong>and</strong> aerialgymnastics.<strong>Sport</strong>ing organisations have reported significant spikes in enquiries <strong>and</strong> memberships followingprevious Olympic <strong>and</strong> Paralympic campaigns, so why not invite local clubs to partner with yourschool to create pathways <strong>for</strong> ongoing involvement. The benefits of sharing facilities <strong>and</strong> humanresources, keeping the kids with friendship groups <strong>and</strong> involving parents can create asustainable <strong>and</strong> highly rewarding experience.This edition of <strong>Sport</strong>shorts provides an ideal tool to help you plan such programs across yourschool. Inside you will find over 43 sporting organisations offering a variety of programsincluding introductory sessions, skill development <strong>and</strong> officiating courses <strong>for</strong> juniors. Theseorganisations can also help link your school to its nearest club or facility.The State <strong>Gov</strong>ernment’s be active initiative, led by the <strong>Office</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Recreation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Sport</strong>,continues to encourage all South Australians to “take every opportunity to be active”. Ourresearch shows that awareness <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the be active message is at an all timehigh. Our challenge is to now translate this awareness into ongoing participation in sport,recreation <strong>and</strong> physical activity.Beijing 08 can be used as a spur to get children <strong>and</strong> their families more involved in sport, soplease think laterally about how your school can use the Olympics <strong>and</strong> Paralympics to helpbuild a more active South Australia.Once again, I offer my sincere thanks to all the teachers, students, volunteers, parents <strong>and</strong>administrators who work together to promote physical activity throughout the community. Yourenthusiastic ef<strong>for</strong>ts to provide quality experiences <strong>for</strong> this generation contribute to developingthe individual, the community <strong>and</strong> ultimately our nation.

SPORTSHORTS TERMS 3 & 4 - 2008Keeping Children Safe in <strong>Recreation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Sport</strong>A h<strong>and</strong>y resource <strong>for</strong> volunteers who help with school sport.The ef<strong>for</strong>ts of community volunteers who assist schools by taking on the roles of sport coaches, managers,officials, referees <strong>and</strong> supervisors, deserve our thanks <strong>and</strong> commendation. Without their valued contribution,school sport could not operate to the extent it currently does.In recognizing this invaluable support, the <strong>Office</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Recreation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Sport</strong> (ORS), with the assistance of Families<strong>SA</strong>, is pleased to offer a new resource booklet titled Keeping Children Safe in <strong>Recreation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Sport</strong> to helpcommunity volunteers better underst<strong>and</strong> the issues <strong>and</strong> responsibilities surrounding child protection in the sportsetting.Schools <strong>and</strong> sports coordinators have a duty of care to ensure their sport volunteers are kept in<strong>for</strong>med <strong>and</strong> awareof their responsibilities to ensure the safety <strong>and</strong> well-being of all young participants under their care.In a straight<strong>for</strong>ward <strong>and</strong> non-threatening manner, this booklet provides important in<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>for</strong> sports volunteersby providing in<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>and</strong> checklists that help explain their legal obligation to report any suspected child abuse<strong>and</strong>/or neglect.It is hoped that by clarifying the issues up front <strong>and</strong> in a positive fashion, our school sport volunteers will feel morecom<strong>for</strong>table <strong>and</strong> confident in continuing to volunteer their services. The ultimate outcome is more young peopleparticipating in a quality, fun <strong>and</strong> safe sporting environment.The booklet can be downloaded from the ORS website at www.recsport.sa.gov.<strong>au</strong>/resourcespublications/resources-publications.23
