Sport and physical activity are vital to childhood development, allowing children to improve their physical and cognitive skills, socialisation, self-confidence, and general fitness.

However, studies estimate that approximately one million Australians injure themselves while playing sports each year. Whilst participation in any sport increases the risk of injury, safe practices can reduce the severity of injuries if they do happen.

To help you make sports safer, we’ve collated a few of our sports fact sheets, our recent sports safety webinar and our sport-related injuries animation.
