The SFL are excited to announce that it will be facilitating a Leadership Mentoring Program which has been developed to provide valuable leadership and communication knowledge and skills. Additionally, providing an opportunity to experience what it is like to be a leader within a mainstream sporting club for people with and without a disability.
The program has been designed to train and equip participants with the basics of leadership, communication and other skills over seven separate training sessions. These sessions will involve group work/discussions and presentations by a variety of speakers who have expertise in their chosen fields. There are no academic prerequisites for entry into the program although priority will be given to applicants who live/work or volunteer in the SFL area.
Please find below the Program Outline as well as an Expression of Interest document.
The expected outcomes of the program are as follows:
To provide leadership mentoring to club members and potential community club members.
To promote fully inclusive practices within a community sporting club environment by engaging members and potential members to develop/improve their leadership potential.
The intended outcomes for mentees (participants) of the program are:
To become future leaders within a sporting club and the broader community.
To enable people with a disability to participate in meaningful volunteering roles within a mainstream sporting club.
To make possible to participants the opportunity to be mentored by larger organisations to further enhance their involvement and expertise as leaders within the sports industry.
If you are interested in being a participant please contact the SFL and register for this free program.
