Two free sports workshops for Russell Island.
Two free sports workshops for Russell Island
Russell Island locals are encouraged to take advantage of two upcoming sports workshops for children and community clubs on Tuesday 24 May and Thursday 26 May.
Sport Minister Phil Reeves said the Deadly Sports program will promote healthy and active lifestyles to young people while the Sport Summit will focus on event management, development and inclusion for local clubs.
“This Deadly Sports program will promote healthy and active lifestyles to local children and young people through a series of coaching clinics, training sessions and friendly competition,” he said.
“Former Bronco Mick De Vere, Queensland Cricket’s Sarah Harris, Baseball Queensland’s Kevin Johnson and Brisbane Roar’s Sam Saif will teach kids sporting skills and healthy lifestyle tips.
“This is a great opportunity for children and young people to learn from the best in the game while meeting their sporting heroes.”
“The Sport Summit will be run by a number of presenters experienced in planning development, partnership opportunities and getting the most out of events ranging from a community sausage sizzle to major competitions,” he said.
“Topics covered will include organising venues, permits, suppliers and logistics, seeking sponsorship, marketing, risk management, seeking new opportunities and planning for new construction.
“This summit will allow the sports community to successfully implement new practices within their community groups at a grass roots level.”
Mr Reeves said both workshops are presented by the Queensland Government.
“We recognise that sport plays an important role in promoting healthy and active communities,” he said.
“It’s crucial we provide opportunities for Queenslanders to stay involved in sport for the long-term,” he said.
“Under the Queensland Government’s Toward Q2: Tomorrow’s Queensland initiative, we want to help Queenslanders become Australia’s healthiest people by reducing obesity levels by one third by 2020.
“This is why we continue to provide support for programs, projects and facilities which help people of all ages participate in sport and active recreation.”
The Russell Island Deadly Sports program will be held on Tuesday 24 May from 8:45am – 2:15pm at Russell Island State School, 38-64 High Street, Russell Island.
The Russell Island Sport Summit will be held on Thursday, 26 May 2011 from 6:00pm – 9:00pm at Russell Island Recreation Hall, 1 Alison Crescent, Russell Island. Light refreshments will be served and admission is free.
