‘Thanks’ Campaign

Volunteers - ‘Thanks’ Campaign

What is the 'Thanks' Campaign?
Volunteers give their time, effort and quite often contribute financially to be of assistance to their organisation. We believe that recognition of volunteers is an important part of the sport and recreation industry and have developed a ‘Thanks’ program that includes:

'Thanks Coach, Thanks Official' breakfasts
These breakfasts provide:

  • An excellent opportunity for sports to recognise their hardworking coaches and officials
  • An opportunity to network with people of similar interests, whilst enjoying presentations from quality sport and recreation speakers:
