What does it take to get the national agency for sport, three sports governing bodies, universities and academic leaders, a national health service, a government and a concerned parent together? A topic as important as concussion in sport! Whilst organisations can lend a helping hand and provide much valued resources, it takes people to drive and innovate. Scotland has led for the past 9 years in developing one set of guidelines for all who are active and enjoy sport. If In Doubt Sit Them Out has now been adopted across the whole of the UK and with our Australian and Kiwi cousins. Today’s launch of the third iteration of the guidelines sees an improvement how we should recognise and remove anyone suspected of a concussion, how the brain of a child or an adult should be respected in the same way with rest, recuperation, rehabilitation and return to normal life and sport, how we should be more aware of the impact on women and girls as well as those of us who enjoy sport and live with a disability. Read about it, learn and tell others know about it.

As Australians all turn their gaze to the Olympics, it is a very good time to remind everyone in all levels of government of the importance of sport in the well being of our country. Sadly, of late, we have had to rely on the foresight of long gone governments for our sporting facilities, as modern governments make sports facilities less of a priority for its citizens. We need more pools, multi-court facilities and open space if our children of today become the Olympians of tomorrow. In this election year, why not ask your local candidate how they plan to improve the access to sporting facilities for the next generation of Australians ?

🎙️ Great to look back on the sporting year on RTE 2FM's Game On, discussing and debating the findings of the Teneo Sport and Sponsorship Index #TSSI24 This 1,000 person nationally representative survey captures the pulse of the nation, unique in representing the views of the Irish general public (not exclusively sports fans) towards sport, athletes, and the greatest sporting achievements and moments of 2024. As well as providing insights into volunteering, participation, sponsorship and the growing cultural impact of sport and the challenges it faces. Nine out of 10 Irish people have an interest in sport, with three Irish women (Katie Taylor, Rhasidat Adeleke and Kellie Harrington) being Ireland's three most admired athletes in 2024. Three incredible athletes, which speaks volumes for the constant growth of women's sport. Long may it continue! If you'd like to discuss the findings or survey further please get in touch with me or a member of the Teneo Sport Advisory Team. #SportsMarketing #SportBusiness (https://lnkd.in/e5V7KvwK)

The international and Italian legislative framework on Safeguarding in sport aims to protect athletes, especially minors, from all forms of abuse, harassment and violence. 👇 This framework is made up of international conventions and resolutions and, at national level, laws, government regulations and policies. It is then completed by principles, regulations and codes of conduct adopted by international and national sports associations on the basis of principles and guidelines dictated by the International Olympic Committee and the individual national Olympic Committees. Below you can find a mere compilation of the main ordinary rules and sports regulations at national and international level. 👇 The collection will be regularly updated and will be followed by a comparative analysis in light of relevant legislation of other states, such as Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Portugal, the United Kingdom, Spain and United States of America. https://lnkd.in/dw3M8e3N #safeguarding #sport #athletes #internationalconvention #sportmanagement #olympics #guidelines #staytuned
