Let Them Play” National Pledge for Free Youth Sport Access


Let Them Play” National Pledge for Free Youth Sport Access
The issue
I believe every child in Australia deserves the right to play.
To belong.
To grow.
To thrive—regardless of postcode, background, or bank balance.
I stand with BluSky Sports Australia and the “Let Them Play” movement in calling for:
Free, universal access to community sport for all Australians under 18
Government investment in inclusive, sustainable sport systems
Removal of financial barriers that exclude children from participation
Recognition of sport as a public good—essential for health, connection, and equity
This is not a luxury.
It’s a necessity.
And it’s time our policies reflected that.
I pledge to support this vision.
I pledge to share it.
And I call on our leaders—local, state, and federal—to act.
Let them play.
For free.
For good.
For every child.
