The sporting field is where friendships are formed, life skills are learned and heroes are made — and this is why in 2013–14 the Australian Government invested almost $120 million in our national sporting organisations despite a challenging economic environment. In the past year the ASC has worked with sports to reform their governance structures and develop strategic and commercial capabilities. The ASC is determined to create better businesses — ones that will thrive in the years ahead — and we are leading the way with a lean and agile operating model and ongoing commitment to our own good governance. One of the highlights of 2013–14 was the Australian Government’s announcement of the Sporting Schools program. This $100 million program, which builds upon the successful Active After-school Communities program, will commence in 2015 and reach more than 850,000 children.

  • Scorpions STING Junior Dev Program 2016-17
    Stronger Together SYDNEY SCORPIONS STING JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM –2016/2017 Background & Objectives • For branding and marketing purposes this program will be known as Scorpions STING Junior Development program. Due to the congestion of the touch football representative calendar, one of the important objectives of STING is to provide players and parents early information in regards to our 2017 NTL T-League & Junior Regional teams. • STING aims to up-skill and develop players and coaches both within Scorpions regional teams and additionally through this newly acquired knowledge being taken back to the local affiliates at grass roots level. • Ideally many players that represent Scorpions Junior Regional 16’s & 18’s division will also play in the T- League teams. This should be leveraged as an advantage and opportunity for success and where possible the same coaches should be involved with these teams and the overall program. • A historical challenge has been in regards to limited player availability during the December-January school holiday period and also justified concerns of player burnout and a limited off-season. As such careful planning and communication is vital for increased opportunities for success of this program. • Additionally our T-League teams will be promoted as a pathway for players to be developed and given the required experience so they are ready for Elite 8 representation in future years. • Our newly formed Scorpions High Performance Unit will ultimately have ownership of this program and partner closely with our committee and technical arm in order to leverage success. STING Program Timelines . Initial T-League squads published – July 2016 .
