Sportswatch - Spring 2018 9 Good governance has never been more crucial

The conduct of individual committee members has rarely been under so much scrutiny. We’re seeing clear evidence of a drift towards personal liability claims being made against directors and committee members – particularly around defamation and employment practices breaches, which are seeking large levels of compensation. These claims, and the link they have with the defamation / fair work / association reform acts, are causing havoc with Association Liability insurers. From unfair dismissal cases, to discrimination and harassment, are all causing insurers to ‘run for the hills’, when it comes to underwriting sporting bodies. Not only are premiums increasing, but so too are the excesses in respect of these sections. We are also seeing insurers move away from professional sports altogether, and tighter exclusions surrounding player agreements. Sports risk management will be key in maintaining affordable coverage for Association Liability in the sporting sector. Those bodies whom are not up to date with the below key areas, will be left behind, and possibly uninsurable in the not too distant future. Make sure your committee members are equipped with good governance and controls: ü Provide them with regular training on the obligations and responsibilities under their constitution; ü Ensure they are aware of these procedures; ü Provide them with a clear process to make sure that decisions regarding committee, employee or coaching dismissals or negative performance evaluation, is always subject to prior review by the bodies HR manager or equivalent (for example, if you have it, an internal legal department and/or external legal counsel).

Sportswatch - Spring 2018 11 Integrity in Sport Panel Highlight of QSport Conference

Held in response to the call for QSport to skew its service delivery towards the less resourced in the State level sporting system, the day enabled a range of inputs to be made to attendees and canvassed a number of topical issues by design, including legal and financial and the link between integrity and credibility in any sport’s reputation and resultant attraction for participation.

The last of these was the subject of an interesting panel session during the day’s proceedings, with prominent local sporting identities providing more than useful insights from their personal perspective on a topic that is very topical, given the establishment at national level of a National Sport Integrity Commission.

The day’s program also included a session
