Hey Sport R U OK Be the Coach that asks R U O.K.?
Published Fri 10 Jul 2020
R U OK? we are, sadly, too often contacted by sporting clubs and associations who want to host games or activities to honour members of their sporting community who have died by suicide. This has led us to develop and now deliver, in partnership with the QBE Foundation, the Hey Sport, R U OK? campaign.
Hey Sport, R U OK? is for all participants, officials, administrators and supporters across the grass roots sporting community. The campaign is designed to complement existing efforts through building an R U OK? culture that encourages everyone involved to support each other both on and off the field.
We are pleased to share these resources with you via our website at ruok.org.au/sport where they are free to download and would appreciate any support you can provide to share the campaign across your network.
More than five million Australians aged 15 years and older are involved in organised sport and physical activity across both playing and non-playing roles. The potential audience for this campaign is significant and varied across age groups, economic, regional and cultural demographic markers, which means we have a shared opportunity to make a real difference.
