		KSAS-Au & CHILD PROTECTION PROCESS

Hi Peter - further to our conversation yesterday here are further detail
on the Scope of the Kids Safe-at-Sport [KSAS-Au] project and how it can assist 
stimulate the Local Information Economy if we can develop the Local Skills 
to support this initiative

A	Multiple Web-page Sponsorship for Local Information Economy
B	Kids Safe-at-Sport Australia Network
C	Next Steps

A	MULTIPLE WEB-PAGE SPONSORSHIP FOR LOCAL INFORMATION ECONOMY

As we are well aware when Companies develop a web-site they expect the World to
come to place orders.

Often they are very disappointed by the response and may blame the web developer.

This has happened a number of times for OIC members which is why those members 
developed SME eGallery Services in 2004 to promote their clients websites.

However that was not successful and the members' clients did not join as it could
not provide local exposure

This is one of the reasons that OIC members have developed the Junior Sports 
Information System [JSIS] to provide Local Businesses with a reason to sponsor 
local sports clubs as part of the Local Information Economy 

There are 45 Identified Junior Sports

Now every State has Child Protection Legislation with which every Junior Sports
Club has to comply.

This legislation is included as a link in every TIMS Tender
for each different State and Territory

This legislation requires every Sports Club to have:

1	every Team Manager and Coach sign a Child Protection Document

2	a mechanism to let the parents know that the Team Manager/Coach
	has signed the form eg each Age Group Team Managers & Coaches
	
3	a Child Complaint process - a way for a parent to lodge a complaint
	with the Club, Local Peak Body and Australian Sports Commission

This is one of the reasons that OIC members have developed the Kids 
Safe-at-Sport [KSAS-Au] web site to provide that Child Protection 
Information and Child Complaint process for each Club site

The KSAS-Au web site will also provide multiple web advertising 
opportunities for Local Businesses to fund the on-going upkeep of
the Local Sport team websites.

Each team will have 5 or 6 web pages with 4 sponsors per web-page.

These web pages will allow the parents to check the Child Protection 
Records and lodge any complaints electronically with a Child Incident 
form.

Here is the index page for one team with links to other pages 

Other web-pages would include

a	Maps to all the Grounds for the season
	
b	Games Played Record - updated each week by players
	
c	Player Records - updated each week by players
	
d	Best & Fairest Awards - updated each week by players
	
e	Child Protection Records
	
In the prototype developed with a Northern Beaches Football Club there are 
110 Football teams each able to support multiple sponsors with a rotating 
sequence to different teams for the sponsors

This is the Volunteer Club Structure that was given to me in 2005 as part 
of the Job Descriptions Joint Venture

Note there is a requirement for Web Co-ordinators for the Senior, Junior 
and Sub-Junior sections of the Club

The 92 Junior teams are

A	Sub-junior (u6-u9) - 51 teams 8-9 player/tm - 408 players
	
B	Junior Female (u10 - u18) - 12 teams - 180 players
	
C	Junior Male (u10 - u18) - 29 teams - 453 players

This is the base of the Information Economy Pyramid which is
structured as follows

D	Example web promotion for Local Businesses by 
	110 local Soccer Club Team index

E	Example web promotion for Local Businesses for 
	local Junior Soccer Club

F	Example web promotion for Businesses for 
	local Junior Soccer Peak Body

G	Example web promotion for Businesses for 
	Junior Soccer State Body

H	Example web promotion for Businesses for 
	Junior Soccer National Body
	
I	Example web promotion for Businesses for 
	Junior Sport National Body
	
There may be well over 500 web-pages per Junior Sports Club for promoting
local businesses

All of this information is derived using XML based on AS4590 as the core 
structure for the Membership Registration Form

B	KIDS SAFE-AT-SPORT NETWORK [KSAS-AU]

The Kids Safe-at-Sport network has a registered web site for each State 
and Territory to co-ordinate the Child Protection issues

	A	KSAS-Aus
	B	KSAS-NSW
	C	KSAS-Vic
	D	KSAS-Qld
	E	KSAS-SA
	F	KSAS-WA
	G	KSAS-Tas
	H	KSAS-ACT
	I	KSAS-NT
	J	KSAS-NZ

At the moment we are developing Power-point presentations on the Child
Protection legislation for a series of Child Protection Seminars during 2007.

In addition we are communicating with the NSW Office of Liquor, Gaming and 
Racing [OLGR] about local Community Development & Support Expenditure [CDSE] 
grants.

The CDSE grants are provided by Licensed Gaming Clubs like RSLs that have
to donate 1.5% of the gaming revenue into local community projects.

We have requested the NSW OLGR to advise us if local CDSE grants are possible
for the implementation of a local version of the Junior Sport Information 
System [JSIS] and linking to Kids Safe-at-Sport KSAS-Au for the Child 
Protection issues.
 
C	NEXT STEPS

Peter - that should provide you with an idea of the scope of this project
and it should provide a very worthwhile project for Centrelink to support
the development of local CIT Skills.

Please contact me if you require further information

Your comments are most welcome 

We look forward to working with Centrelink to develop uniform AS4590 
applications for the Child Protection process
