Volunteers are the lifeblood of sports clubs, playing essential roles in everything from coaching and organising events to managing facilities and ensuring player well-being. They need to be nurtured and appreciated; if they aren’t, they can lose interest and enthusiasm. With this suggested approach, your club will reap the benefits of a dedicated, skilled, and passionate volunteer team that feels appreciated and ready to contribute for the long term.

Securing funding for community projects is no small task. The process involves navigating complex requirements, aligning projects with strategic priorities and ensuring that applications stand out among countless others. For Councils, clubs and community organisations, a well-planned approach to funding can unlock opportunities to grow, improve and create lasting impact. Learn how CPR Group can help you secure the funding you need.

Change rooms and washrooms are no longer just functional spaces—they are becoming symbols of inclusivity and psychological safety. Modern facility guidelines increasingly recognise this importance through overarching principles and design notes. Still, guidelines can easily fall out of step with best practices in this continually evolving area. CPR Group is committed to staying at the forefront of this evolving conversation and supporting Councils, clubs and other organisations as they navigate this transition in future facility improvements.

Equitable access is a commitment to fostering inclusive spaces where every person feels empowered to move freely. While laws provide essential frameworks, individual actions play a pivotal role in making spaces accessible. Through our community work at CPR Group, we’re seeing what is required to encourage communities to take shared responsibility for creating accessible, inclusive public spaces.

For a club or association, bylaws can play an essential role in supplementing the rules contained in their constitution. They complement the broader principles in a constitution, focusing on the "how" rather than the "what". As such, having a clear set of bylaws is foundational to ensuring effective governance, good operations and positive member experiences. With our expertise, CPR Group can guide you through the bylaws process.
