A new Ballarat leadership network dedicated to females aged 15 and over is proving a success through local sporting and active recreation circles.
The Ballarat Active Women’s Leadership Network sessions are designed for female sport and recreation enthusiasts who have an interest in networking, personal growth and development.
The focus of these sessions is around engagement and empowerment of women and girls. The sessions also provide a safe and supportive environment to share insights, challenges and creative opportunities to be active and stay active.
The objectives of the network include the creation of a safe environment to encourage social connectedness and friendships between the female participants.
Currently facilitated online by the City of Ballarat, Sports Central and community leaders, the network also encourages the development of our local female champions and future leaders.
Due to COVID-19 this group is staying connected through Facebook. The second face to face session is scheduled for later this year.

The Victorian Government’s Get Active Kids Voucher Program is now open, offering up to $200 per child to help eligible Victorian families cover the costs of organised sport and active recreation activities. Designed to reduce financial barriers and encourage children and young people to get involved, the program supports both those returning to sport and those trying something new.
The Victorian Government’s Sporting Club Grants Program is now open, offering funding to help community sport and active recreation organisations grow and thrive. With grants available across five categories, the program supports grassroots clubs to reduce participation barriers, strengthen skills, and build active, connected local communities.
