We’re here to help and support you through the impact of COVID-19. We encourage you to stay in touch with your club and coaches and with your friends and family, so together we can overcome the challenges that come our way. The health and well-being of our members is our priority. Like MSA and other Branches we have created a page to provide updated information and resources to help connect members, clubs, coaches and volunteers in this unique time of change. Information is changing quickly – for the most up-to-date information, including the latest government advice and updates, visit the DHHS website or the Victorian Government’s health alert page.
