About Volunteering

SAISA is committed to the development of its volunteers. All SAISA board members and officials are volunteers. All the judges and other specialists and assistants you see on the judging panels are volunteers. Volunteers are given the opportunity for further development and training which may include attending Office for Recreation seminars and courses and SportSA events and are supported with grant applicaitons. Judges and competition officials have the oppportunity to train and officiate at events in South Australia and interstate. Board and committee members are encouraged to take part in governance seminars when available. 

Take a look at how many volunteers are needed to run a competition such as State Championships (below).

Several of the volunteers were able to apply their hours volunteering to credits for SACE, pensions or professional accreditation.

If you would like to volunteer please contact your club or SAISA.
