  • Queensland Government Sport & Active Recreation Strategy 2019
    Sports Federation of Queensland (QSport) submission: Queensland Government Sport & Active Recreation Strategy 2019-2029 October, 2018 1 | P a g e Introduction Sport and active recreation play central and compelling roles in the lives of many Queenslanders, but it is increasingly evident there are changes in: who is (and is not) participating in sport and active recreation; what inspires people to become and remain active; and the barriers and impediments to building participation. The Sports Federation of Queensland (QSport) understands the Queensland Government values the role of sport and how it contributes to Queensland’s social cohesion, economic prosperity and individual’s health and wellbeing. We also acknowledge that the achievement of more Queenslanders being active requires both sound investment and evidence to direct and shape the initiatives, opportunities, policy and programs that can inspire the achievement of priority outcomes. This is the responsibility of all stakeholders who understand the benefits of sport and active recreation. QSport welcomes the opportunity to contribute and shape a shared vision for a vibrant, inclusive, connected and productive Queensland. We also value the intention to develop a Strategy that acknowledges and supports sport and active recreation providers and stakeholders as pivotal contributors to enhancing better personal, social and economic outcomes for all Queenslanders. Our submission relating to the Strategy Discussion Paper includes insight into the sport sector and takes a solution-oriented
