Australian Guidelines for Safer Youth Sport | Project underway
The Australian Guidelines for Safer Youth Sport is a new project being delivered in collaboration with the Australian Sports Commission.
Running from July 2026 to December 2027, the project will develop nationally consistent, evidence-based guidance to support safer participation in youth sport. The guidelines will address key areas including training load and overtraining, fatigue and burnout, recovery, sleep, nutrition, and injury management pathways.
About the Project Advisory Group
The Project Advisory Group has been formed to provide strategic advice and guidance throughout the project, helping to ensure the guidelines are evidence-based, practical and relevant across the Australian youth sport environment.
We look forward to sharing more details as the project progresses.
