The Play by the Rules Award recognises outstanding initiatives that contributed to safer, fairer and/or more inclusive sport in 2018–19.

Nominations for the Play by the Rules Award are open until 13^th September 2019.

The winner of the Play by the Rules Award will announced on 23^rd September 2019. A representative from the winning organisations will be offered an all expenses paid trip to Sydney to attend the 2019 Diversity and Inclusion in Sport Forum on 17^th October to receive their awards. Award winners will be featured on Play by the Rules and promoted to subscribers and via social media.

If your organisation has done some great work to make your sport safer, fairer and/or more inclusive, enter the 2019 Play by the Rules Award, and gain some national recognition. The award is open to any state or local sport and/or recreation organisation.

This year we are expanding the Award categories. There are now two categories:

• Category 1: Local community sport and recreation clubs, and
• Category 2: State/territory sport and recreation associations or state umbrella bodies.

Also, even if you don’t win one of the Awards you could feature as one of our Case Studies on Play by the Rules - https://www.playbytherules.net.au/resources/case-studies. These are all examples of previous Award nominees.
