Ep 112: Breaking Point Mini-Series — Part 1: The Hidden Pressure in Community Sport

from Basket Case Clubs · host CPR Group

In this episode, we kick off our brand-new Breaking Point Mini-Series and we’re starting with a hard truth: from the outside, community sport looks like it’s thriving… but underneath, the pressure is building.Participation is strong. Facilities are full. Everything appears to be on track.But behind the scenes, volunteers are carrying more than ever before.We’re talking about:The growing burden on club volunteersWhy so many committees are stuck in survival modeThe gap between rising expectations and limited capacityAnd the uncomfortable reality that the system itself might be the problemThis isn’t about blaming volunteers, it’s about recognising the pressure they’ve been quietly absorbing for years.Because most clubs don’t collapse with a bang…they simply fade away.This episode sets the foundation for the series ahead, where we’ll unpack what’s really driving this pressure and what needs to change before community sport reaches its true breaking point.Tune in now for a raw and honest look at the hidden realities of grassroots sport and why “just getting by” isn’t going to cut it anymore.Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/2dwmJPaZpzI--------Need a constitution check-up?
