Belco Cats achieve Good Sports Level 3 Accreditation
We are a Good Sports club
Sporting clubs such as ours play a significant role in the community and have a responsibility to our members and their families.
We have chosen to join over 9000 clubs across Australia taking part in the Good Sports program. Through Good Sports we are committed to managing alcohol responsibly and ensuring smoke free areas, which we believe will help us to provide a healthy, safe and family friendly environment.
Together, we are helping inspire a healthier sporting nation.

Injuries, Insurance Claims & what to do
With the season now underway we will unfortunately (but hopefully not) see some serious injuries. It is often confusing about what we can do as a Club and how AFL Canberra supports us through this. If the injury sustained is significant you may wish to look into an Insurance claim. Marsh Insurance is the insurance company that covers the AFL & can provide this advice.

1 November 2024 can be found here.
