We are excited to welcome you to the third Coaching and Officiating Conference, hosted by the Australian Sports Commission, from March 18 to 20, 2025, at the iconic GMHBA Stadium in Geelong. This year’s theme is ‘Connection’, highlighting how modern coaching and officiating methods are changing the way we experience sports, shape our environments and develop our organisations.

The role that coaches and officials play to create the right environments for participants have never been more important – at all levels of sport. At this conference, you’ll gain a deep understanding of what coaches and officials need to learn and grow. We’ll focus on building flexible and effective skills within a lively and ever-changing sports ecosystem. You’ll have the chance to explore new ideas, technologies and viewpoints that encourage agility, genuine teamwork and strong connections.

Together, we’ll build on our progress to clearly define what is needed for coaches, officials and participants to learn, thrive and feel a sense of belonging. This is your opportunity to be part of a community dedicated to advancing sports through innovation and collaboration.
