PLAY WISE – LIVE WISE
Sporting Club Presentation
Empowering Players & Building Respect Through Sport
On the sports field as in life, we are dedicated to promoting a culture of respect across all sports. Our Be Wise Live Wise Presentation
shares Pat’s story and demonstrates to players, coaches, parents, and communities how to create safer, more supportive environments in
sport and beyond. We work with clubs to prevent conflict becoming violence and help people understand that every action, both on and
off the field, has lasting consequences.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many audience members can attend the presentation?
There is no maximum number per presentation; the only limitation is ensuring that you have enough space to accommodate everyone. We recommend people be seated in chairs, rather than sitting on the floor.
What room set up and audio-visual equipment do we need?
Whatever space you have, if it is adequate to hold the number of attendees you’re expecting, we can present there. The presentation includes video, so we need to have an AV set up so everyone there can see and hear well. Please let us know if you don’t have suitable AV equipment and we can arrange to bring our own.
Do you provide any resources?
You will receive our Presentation Resource link upon booking. This includes a Families Overview to share, posters for your clubrooms and social media tiles.
