Baseball Australia launch five-year plan to boost participation
The initiative is centred around three main strategic pillars - playing the game, putting on the game, and facilitating the game.
The first focuses on sustainable growth, quality of experience and player retention, and compelling products with the headline measure of success marked by the amount of people participating in clubs.
"Putting on the game" hopes to see a growth in the number of active volunteers, coaches, umpires and scorers while the final pillar aims for the number of dedicated participation staff to increase.
Baseball Australia has worked with its seven regional member associations to outline the roles played in implementing the plan.
"During the process we have identified the themes and then prioritised them based on what will see us able to provide amazing experiences for everyone participating in baseball," said Baseball Australia chief executive Glenn Williams.
"We have had a collaborative approach to developing the plan, working closely with our state and territory partners, and this plan maps out how we will work together to help grow the sport we all love."
