Participant-Led Systems
A Roadmap for Sustainable Youth Sport Reform
Sport doesn't have a participation problem.
It has a system design problem.
-
82% of Australian adults report experiencing at least one form of interpersonal violence in community sport.
-
Participation peaks at 9–14, then declines sharply through adolescence.
-
Physical inactivity is projected to cost USD $300 billion globally by 2030.
Participant-Led Systems reframe youth sport around retention, wellbeing and sustained engagement — participation and performance outcomes follow.

Turning insight into system change requires a clear pathway
Participant-led systems aren’t implemented through isolated programs, they're designed and embedded through a structured process. ​​
​
This is how we work with governments, sports organisations and system leaders to move from insight to implementation - shifting systems, not just designing programs.
​
Because without aligning the underlying drivers, even the best initiatives will continue to deliver the same outcomes.
