Smartplay is Sports Medicine Australia's sports injury prevention program funded by VicHealth and the Department of Planning and Community Development (Sport and Recreation Victoria).

New Club Planning Templates are now available through SmartPlay

All sporting clubs need to plan for the future, however sometimes it is difficult knowing where to start.

In order to achieve best practice, sporting clubs need to work out what their priorities are for a specific period of time. To help with this Smartplay has developed a Club Priorities Planning Template, which acts as a starting point for developing strategic direction.

Once priorities are decided they need to be put into action. To help, Smartplay has developed a Club Action Plan Template to keep track of where you are up to and to assist you complete tasks the way you planned and to deadline. A Sample Club Action Plan Template has also been created to assist sporting clubs with an example of club priority being achieved.

To download these planning templates visit the Smartplay website.
