Have you considered the benefits in providing opportuities for older adults in your club? Does your club's mission statement focus on being an inclusive club?

When sport organisations do sport differently to include older adults they;
• attract larger and more diverse audiences
• provide opportunities for inclusion of people at different stages of their lives
• increase the number of participants, volunteers and administrators
• improve their brand by expanding to create new partnerships with other like minded community groups/services.
• see their sport thrive into the future
• positively influence the health of Victorians.
