Description

Community sports clubs are truly the centre around which many of us revolve our social activities and spare time.  Whether as parents ferrying children to their weekend games, or participating in our own sports for exercise and the love of the game.  And then there are the unsung heroes, the Volunteers.

This month Alison and Carl chat with Michael Malone the President of Lower Plenty Football Netball Club and Narelle Wilson from the Heidelberg Golf Club Womens Competitions.  Some of the topics covered are:

- What are the roles they carry out?
- Stories of some special Volunteers, the life-blood of all community sports clubs.
- Education and support for ensuring respect for all participants and officials.
- Facilities and improvements.
- Community support, collaborations and sponsorship.
- Government and council support.
- Upcoming finals and events.
