Sport Industry Group Webinar (Volunteer Selection)

Volunteers are essential to sport and our local communities. Hosted by Volunteering Victoria, Vicsport and Regional Sport Victoria, this webinar will focus on volunteer selection, including:

• Creating role-specific selection requirements.
• Background checks.
• Volunteer interviews.
• Selection follow-up.

Come along to connect with others in the sport industry and find out more about maximising success with engaging volunteers.

Guest Speaker

We will be joined by Paralympian and National Project Manager at Disability Sports Australia, Elle Steele, to talk about her experiences with sport volunteers as well as her time as a professional athlete.

Born with a congenital disability called Arthrogryposis, affecting the range of motion in the joints and impacting the cartilage in the body, Elle also developed Amniotic Band Syndrome (ABS) in the womb which affected the shape of both her hands. Elle has had over 30 surgeries, including two knee replacements, and has had to relearn to walk five times throughout her life.

Following the end of a 13-year career as a professional athlete that included selection at the 2000 Sydney Paralympics, Elle now wants to help you follow your inner desire to show up in the world and be exactly who you want to be. She teaches people of all abilities how to say yes to themselves and yes to the world and work out how later.

Her objective isn’t to convince you of her abilities but to help you believe in your own.
