Frequently asked questions

What is a Club with Heart?

A Club with Heart is a club that strives for competitive greatness. It wants to perform at the highest level and win, but it achieves this by firstly creating an environment of respect, support, care and resilience for its local and wider community.   

What is the Club with Heart model?

A Club with Heart aspires to create a new ERA through Education, Responsibility and Accountability. The club leadership team recognises the critically important role it plays in shaping the futures of those in the club community. It recognises that to affect these life changing impacts it needs to be courageous, resilient, respectful and connected, both on and off the field.

Why should we do this as a club?

Many clubs understand how important their role is in the lives of young people but are not always sure how to achieve their aspirations of being a place of fun, care and connection. Clubs with Heart understand that they need to develop the knowledge, structure, culture and skills to become a truly great club.

What should we do first?

The first step is completing the Club Health Check. We encourage the survey to be completed by a wide section of the club community from the committee, volunteers, players and families. A suggested minimum of 20 people complete the survey but encourage as many of the club community as possible.

How do I register interest for my club?

You will find an electronic form on this website. Fill out your details and we will be in touch shortly.

What are the major barriers to being successful in becoming a Club with Heart?

Some clubs have deeply ingrained attitudes and behaviours that are hard to shift. They could be about respecting diversity, misuse of alcohol, hyper-masculinity, cliques that perpetuate negative behaviours, lack of care of volunteers and much more, including poor leadership. Becoming a great club requires courage and commitment to an ideal and never compromising in the execution of the vision.

What is the financial investment to become a Club with Heart?

It is $5,000 for the 2 year membership. Clubs can pay an initial $1,000 to commit and then $2,000 per year. This is a saving of over $1,000 if the club was to do individual sessions. SALT’s major partner is the Bendigo Bank and if clubs bank with a local branch there could be funding available. Please contact SALT to discuss.

Can we measure the results within our specific club?

The Club Health Check allows the capture of a range of data points as a baseline addressing areas around the health, values, focuses and leadership of the club. There are assigned 18 questions we use as the basis of successful measurement of outcomes.

What happens if members of the Club Wellbeing Team leave the club or drop out?

SALT can train any new members wanting to join the CWT by inviting them to join with other clubs undertaking the training. They will also have access to the SALT support hub to answer questions or receive any support or advice needed.

What happens if a club does not use all of the allocated sessions in the two year membership?

Unfortunately sessions won’t be able to carry over into year 3. SALT will support clubs in planning the 2 year process to ensure sessions are completed.

Can the sessions be face to face or on-line?

Clubs can choose to run the sessions in-club or on-line. 

How long does a SALT presentation run for?

All junior sessions run for 1hr with senior sessions running from 75-90mins.
