Cricket Administrators and Volunteers are the greatest assets of our clubs and associations.
SACA recognises the significant contribution volunteers make. Without volunteer involvement at all levels of the game, many clubs and associations simply could not exist.
A variety of resources are available for volunteers to access:
Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing
Learn from the ORSR about what sporting clubs can do to capture new volunteers and support existing ones. Find additional resources and read about the Volunteering Strategy for South Australia 2021-2027.
The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) is committed to supporting the sector to enable more people to volunteer in sport and to enhance the sport volunteering experience through a reimagined vision for the future of sport volunteering (the Vision).
Volunteering SA&NT provide free and paid training for volunteer managers/coordinators and volunteering-involving organisations. Sessions are informative and offer simple solutions to ongoing issues and proven strategies for dealing with more complex concerns
