Active Education Australia (AEA), in partnership with VicSport invites Victorian SSAs to apply for the fully funded 2025-2027 AEA Coach Connect program.

We are looking for 10x SSAs over the two years of the funding with five selected for September 2025 – June 2026 and another five for July 2026 – June 2027.

Successful SSAs will receive:

  • Funded access to inclusive eLearning modules for coaches and staff
  • Practical workshops that embed best practice coaching strategies
  • 1:1 mentoring tailored to your SSAs goals
  • Support to build sustainable school to club pathways
  • Opportunities to connect through events and networking

This program is designed to help your coaches lead great sessions in both school and community sport with confidence clarity and purpose.

Rugby Victoria was excited to partner with Active Education Australia for the Together More Active project. The project has made an incredible difference to the way Rugby Victoria now interacts with schools, prioritises staff development and sets goals and KPIs… We sincerely thank Sport and Recreation Victoria for offering the funding and pass on our gratitude to Jodie and her team for making it happen.”
