Empowering through education

Education we provide

We provide a range of education resources and interventions for everyone who participates in sport.

We cover from grassroots to elite-level athletes, their parents, teachers, coaches, sport administration staff and support personnel.

Doping in sport affects not only athletes but also their families, coaches, team managers, sporting bodies and fans.

The decision to use performance-enhancing substances compromises the integrity of fair competition.

It diminishes the achievements of athletes who compete clean, and erodes the core values of sport.

Importance of clean sport

Clean sport is about athletes being supported and encouraged to:

• compete fairly and equally
• be recognised for their natural talent and hard-earned skills
• uphold the true spirit and values of sport
• prioritise their health and well-being
• know and follow the anti-doping rules
• appreciate the role of drug testing in identifying rule violations
• safeguarding those who choose to compete clean.

- Face to face and outreach events

We deliver face to face sessions to sporting groups around the country aligning with integrity education plans developed collaboratively with our colleagues in National Sporting Organisations.

All our presenters have extensive experience in elite sport - either as an elite athlete, coach, sports medical practitioner or administrator.

They provide engaging and interactive presentations that will meet the particular needs of your group and sport.

These sessions are usually delivered at no cost to the organisation, within the resources we have available.

We can also set up outreach booths at major sporting events. For these, we provide staff, a marquee, technology and free merchandise.

We encourage conversations and answer questions with athletes, parents and support personnel.

Contact us if you want us at your next event to talk about sport integrity issues by emailing: education@sportintegrity.gov.au

The presenter was absolutely fantastic, and it lead to a really good talk about something potentially uncomfortable.

It is important that our future elite athletes, coaches and support personnel understand the importance of integrity in sport.  

To help, we have developed free school resources and professional development opportunities for teachers.

• Lesson guides to complement health and physical education curriculum subjects
• various award-winning online courses
• mobile apps
• posters
• electronic advertisements
• classroom activities
• assessment materials.
   

To assist teachers with our school content, we have produced the Secondary Schools Resource Kit to further explain our resources and where they can be used with elite pathway athletes and within the classroom.

Very engaging session with knowledge presented comprehensively in a clear way. Immersive experience.

School visits

We can also provide low-cost school visits to talk about subjects such as:

• ‘food first’ nutrition messaging
• the risks of supplements
• the dangers of performance enhancing and image enhancing drugs
• ethical decision making in sport
• good sportsmanship.
   

These are presented by our team of elite Clean Sport Educators.

We try to accommodate these requests at no cost to schools where possible.

Our education staff can also visit your school for free teacher professional development sessions (either in person or via a webinar).

These will help you understand and apply our education material, online learning tools and curriculum-aligned lesson plans guides.
