Sport Integrity

Sport is an Australian way of life. It brings people together, transcending differences in language, ability, culture and beliefs, and provides physical, social and economic benefits. 

​

Threats to sports integrity include competition-manipulation, doping, and behaviours that impact people’s positive experience of sport, such as discrimination or abuse. Integrity in sport means that athletes, supporters and fans can participate and celebrate sport, confident in the knowledge that they are part of a safe, ethical and inclusive environment. 

​

Skate Australia takes integrity seriously. 

​

All our members have an obligation to protect and maintain the integrity of sport, as well as the health and wellbeing of our athletes. 

​

We work closely with Sport Integrity Australia, the national agency established to protect sport against integrity threats and prohibited conduct.

Reporting Integrity Issues

Everyone from athletes, parents, support personnel, administrators and supporters play a role in protecting the integrity of our sport.

If you see something, say something!

On 1 May 2022, Skate Australia adopted the National Integrity Framework and opted into the independent complaints handling process for integrity-related issues run by Sport Integrity Australia that relate to doping, discrimination and safeguarding children and young people.
