STATE OF AFFAIRS | Play by the Rules is for all of us<br />

Part of the funding agreement between the<br />

State Government and AFL Tasmania includes<br />

key performance indicators related to clubs<br />

and associations promoting a safe sporting<br />

environment for members and spectators. This<br />

includes increasing awareness among the<br />

football community of the Play by the Rules<br />

resource and incorporating Play by the Rules<br />

education into coaching courses.<br />

Play by the Rules has been integrated into AFL<br />

Tasmania coach education courses throughout the<br />

state for a number of years now and in conjunction<br />

with Sport and Recreation Tasmania the roll out of<br />

Play by the Rules to our TSL clubs and affiliates will<br />

begin in the coming months.<br />

Play by the Rules is an interactive online resource<br />

that provides information and tools for community<br />

sport and recreation on how to prevent and deal<br />

with discrimination, harassment and child abuse<br />

and how to develop inclusive and welcoming<br />

environments for participation.<br />

Sport and recreation clubs and associations can<br />

use Play by the Rules to:<br />

• Ensure coaches, administrators, officials<br />

and umpires understand their roles and<br />

responsibilities.<br />

• Better understand sport and the law.<br />

• Develop and review policies.<br />

• Access brochures to be used as a way of<br />

communicating messages about sport being<br />

fun, fair and safe.<br />

Visit www.playbytherules.net.au to discover how<br />

Play by the Rules can assist your club to provide<br />

and promote a safe sporting environment. For<br />
