The Australian Sports Commission welcomes the Australian Government's National Sport Strategy, Sport Horizon.
Bringing together the work of the sport sector, Sport Horizon provides a framework to focus our efforts and resources to drive improvement and better outcomes for sport over the next decade.
The priorities will align with Australia’s National Sport Participation Strategy – Play Well, and Australia’s 2032+ High Performance Sport Strategy – Win Well.
Sport Horizon sets our shared vision for the 'green and gold decade' highlighting six priority areas: Inclusion, Participation, Safety, High Performance, International Engagement, and Economy and Environment.
Minister for Sport, The Hon Anika Wells MP said, “We need to make sure everyone has an opportunity to participate in grassroots sport and reap the benefits of enjoying a healthy, active and inclusive lifestyle that sport and recreation activities offer”.
“Sport Horizon will ensure more people play and enjoy sport in a safe and welcoming environment. It will create world-leading pathways for our most talented people, and better support weekend warriors and the volunteers who turn local events into celebrations.”
The strategy will help build healthy, active and connected communities and a thriving sport system.
