The Government’s vision for a national sports infrastructure is that of a robust, self-sustaining sports system backed by a dynamic sports industry which plays an appropriate role in national development, while retaining a focus on its clients, from the beginner to the world champion.
The ASC’s role in advancing this vision is both direct (in terms of its own programs) and facilitative (in terms of its partnerships with other stakeholders).
The ASC provides national leadership and direction in the area of sports development and the enhancement of the management capabilities of sports delivery agencies including sporting clubs. This is achieved by working in partnership with those agencies to develop a framework and coordinating mechanisms to improve management practices and broaden the skill base. Support is provided through the development of technological, educational, training and employment standards for sports personnel in conjunction with stakeholders.
Australia’s profile and expertise is also fostered through international agreements and projects.
