As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of behaviour and community spirit within our club, we will be introducing a “Culture, Conduct, and Community Panel” beginning with the Summer 2024/2025 season.

The panel will convene weekly to be the initial body for reviewing any feedback or complaints received during game days. They will provide recommendations to the senior Balwyn Blazers Committee regarding appropriate next steps.

We are currently inviting expressions of interest for the inaugural panel, which will consist of five club members who can offer a perspective on feedback and complaints. Our Integrity and Welfare Officer will also serve on the panel.

We are seeking individuals who:

  • Are coaches, team managers, or parents within the club.  Prior experience on similar panels or committees, such as those within other sports organisations (AFL, soccer, or cricket) is a bonus but not mandatory.OR
  • Are active players aged 18 and over, and/or referees.AND
  • Can spend between one and three hours per week working with the panel.

If you are interested in participating, or would just like further details, then please submit your expression of interest to the Blazers Integrity and Welfare Officer by 5pm on Friday 13-September-2024.
