Sport and Recreation
Sport and Recreation is a key component of the Australian way of life and the backbone of many communities. Local sporting and recreation clubs are predominantly managed and administered by volunteers, while being supported by local and state government and in most instances their state and national peak body.
The way sport and recreation is provided and managed today, is vastly different from years gone by when clubs operated independently and in many instances without statutory or legal requirements. Clubs today need to be professionally managed and operated like any business meaning they need to be accountable, professional, sustainable, and deliver quality services to a time poor community with more leisure choices than ever.
One Eighty appreciates the pressures facing community sport and recreation, and understands the need for clubs to be strategic in the way they manage and deliver their services to their communities.
We have assisted local through to national organisations in their day to day management and development of their sports and activities, as well as many local authorities that support local clubs in the services they provide to their communities. Examples of our services include:
