Careers in Sport

As the Barwon Sports Academy profile has risen, so has the demand for information and direction. In response to numerous requests we have for career advice in the sporting industry, this document has been formatted to assist. It provides a link to key bodies at both local and state level that may be of use to people seeking direction in the Health / Fitness and Sport Sector. 

(Thank you to the VIS for their assistance in putting this document together)
