Why you should attend?

The 2016 Sports Without Borders Summit will draw on the wisdom gained through 10 years of work by Sports Without Borders to create more inclusive sports clubs.

The Summit will bring together the complete picture - sportspeople, club officials, volunteers, policymakers, government funders, government and local government workers, peak bodies, and sports administrators to make sport inclusive and to progress more socially just and vibrant communities.

If you're from any of these groups, this conference is about you.

Learn the facts, hear from your heroes, meet people who care about what you care about, and take away some inspiration and practical, best practice sports solutions.
