National Symposium on Sportspersons' Mental Health

Mental health has been unaddressed in the Australian sporting landscape for a long time, but several athletes have recently opened up about their battles with depression and anxiety, also revealed their struggles with mental health and dealing with their schedules of relentless training, competition and evaluation. 

With the recent outbreak of mental health issues in players, the Foundation is organising a National Symposium on Sportspersons' Mental Health to raise awareness about mental health and wellbeing among players, coaches, sports associations and to have a discussion on the status of support services available to them.

We hope you can join us either in-person or virtually! For virtual attendees, a virtual event link will be provided closer to the event date.
