Welcome to Sport Supporters Australia

Sport Supporters Australia (SSA) is a new membership-based organisation that aims to represent the interests of the major stakeholders of Australia’s leading spectator sports – the fans – in the boardrooms of the country’s leading sporting organisations, with government, in the media and in the community. A not for profit organisation, SSA is governed by a Board of Directors who are supported by a number of committees in developing strategies, policy advice and recommendations on issues that are relevant to sports supporters.
