SportWest, in collaboration with the Department of Creative Industries, Tourism and Sport and Swimming WA, is proud to present a vital community initiative aimed at strengthening positive behaviours and fostering respectful environments across community sport through the True Sport Sideline Behaviour Initiative.
True Sport is proud to partner with Swimming WA to deliver the True Sport – Club Respect Workshop on Wednesday 11 March 2026, supporting clubs to strengthen culture, improve sideline behaviour, and create safer, more positive sporting environments.
What the Workshop Covers
Participants will be guided through the True Sport A.W.E.S.O.M.E. Framework (“The Game Plan”), working through real‑world scenarios and practical strategies that can be applied in any sport. The session focuses on:
- Strengthening sideline behaviour and managing expectations
- Building positive relationships between committees, coaches, athletes and spectators
- Creating clear, aligned standards for behaviour
- Implementing simple actions that improve culture immediately
Ideal for committee members, administrators and emerging leaders, this workshop provides practical, easy‑to‑apply tools to build a respectful and sustainable club environment. [wa.swimming.org.au]
