Netball NSW

Help promote resilience and a supportive culture within your sport and the broader community through mental health training.

Knowing how to spot and respond to signs of crisis in your team and with your teammates can have a big impact on mental health concerns. Early intervention and a supportive sporting environment is a winner for people within your sport, club and association.

Free mental health courses are being offered to people living in regional, rural and remote areas in NSW to equip coaches, administrators and others to identify and support people dealing with mental health challenges.  

Courses are funded through the Office of Sport NSW Mental Health Sports Fund
