Express your interest to assist in school sports events

We are looking for people to support students at sporting events run by the Department of Education throughout the year. Opportunities may include:

• coordinating
• refereeing
• coaching
• officiating
• assisting with general duties.

Some events that we coordinate are Country Week, swimming competitions, basketball tournaments, triathlons, etc.

Eligibility

Staff from public and non-government schools, as well as non-school-based staff, can express their interest if they hold a current Working with Children Check.

An understanding of sporting events and rules is desirable, but you do not need previous experience.

If you are invited to participate in an event, you will need your line manager's approval to be released from your usual duties.

Note:

If you are public school-based staff, relief payments are available to your school.

To express your interest, complete the Express your interest to assist in school sports events form.

When completing the form, you will need to:

• confirm you have a current Working with Children Check
• select the roles and types of sports you are interested in
• provide details of any affiliations with state sporting organisations
• confirm if you have current first aid training
• provide details of relevant sporting experience, qualifications or licences, such as coaching qualifications or a bus licence
• provide emergency contact details.

We will contact you when suitable opportunities become available.
