A BLUEPRINT FOR THE NEXT DECADE
Connecting Our Industry to Grow Participation, Sustainably
11th – 13th July 2022, Melbourne
AUSTRALASIA’S LEADING COMMUNITY SPORT AND RECREATION CONVENTION
Welcome to the National Sports & Physical Activity Convention for 2022
The National Sports & Physical Activity 2022 (NSC22) recognises that the industry is on the brink of a generational opportunity, with the award of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Brisbane, the re-engineering of our industry and how we provide our services in the new Covid-world. Embracing the challenges of a Federal Election (likely May 2022), possible austerity measures starting in the next year or so, the growing sedentary lifestyles and the impact of COP26 on the sport and climate change.
NSC22 will be embracing these challenges and opportunities with a new format, connecting the dots between the big issues, the generational opportunities and providing a plethora of new knowledge sharing and networking opportunities.
