We thank the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing for their funding support of this program.
The Sport Safety Tick is a self-assessment tool designed to help sport, clubs, schools, and community groups create a medically safe and well-prepared sporting environment. By completing the questionnaire, you are taking proactive steps to ensure the right medical structures are in place to support your players, officials, volunteers and teams throughout the season.
Sport comes with inherent risks, but having strong safety measures in place can help ensure a well-managed and enjoyable season. We encourage all clubs to regularly review their medical safety procedures and reach out if additional assistance is required.
SASMA is always here to offer support and guidance.
The TICK is designed as a framework to guide and support you/your sport. It provides important information, although it is not an audit, approval, professional opinion or certification. To maximise the TICK program, it relies on honest and accurate responses.
