MONASH SPORTSCENEInclusion - Make It Your Sport
Sport & Active Recreation Respite Program
Each trip features local sport and recreation clubs and organisations that are proudly working to ensure all members of the community are welcome and have opportunities to be involved. This is so everyone gets to share and enjoy the enthusiasm and energy that inclusive sport and recreation generates.
Participation doesn't just mean playing the sport itself. Clubs and organisation welcome spectators, new club members and supporters and of course are always in need of more volunteers. The ERLS team have the know-how and commitment to support these clubs through the ERLS Access for All Abilities Program whilst the ERLS Sport and Active Recreation Respite Program champions people with a disability to fully explore these new possibilities to suit their individual interests and lifestyles.
The trips currently begin Friday evenings at 6.00pm and finishes 5.00pm on Saturday and run regularly throughout the year.
Participants will be eligible if they:- Possess a keen interest to explore and participate in community sport & active recreation.
- Reside in the Eastern Region, including the Shire of Yarra Ranges.
- Are aged 16 years and older.
- Reside full- time with a parent or a voluntary carer.
City of Monash Clubs' the Mazenod Panthers and the Eastern Lions Soccer Club continue to support the program, and will be on show in the coming months. It is a great opportunity for interested clubs to find out first hand how the program works.
For Clubs keen to become involved please contact the Clinton Fullgrabe, AAA Coordinator on 9877 9333 or visit the ERLS website www.erls.net.
