Youth Advisory Committee

The Youth Advisory Committee has been formed in response to the Child Safety Standards that came into effect 1st July 2022. The Committee is made up of a group of young people, aged between 10-21 years, with a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences in Calisthenics and is responsible for representing the views, values and ideas of young members in our sport. The Committee is an integral part of Calisthenics Victoria in sharing the issue that impact young people in our sport and their input will help shape the strategic planning and direction of Calisthenics Victoria.
