Blue cards for sport and active recreation
You will need a blue card if your work relates to sport or active recreation and includes providing services to children or conducting activities with children, including if you are:
- an employee or volunteer of a business that offers training for children, for example a person who works or volunteers with children at a martial arts business
- under 18 and paid for your work
- a student enrolled in a tertiary course—including certificate, TAFE and university courses—who needs to do a practical placement
- a person employed to provide personal training to children.
Under this category—unless you are a restricted person—you don't need a blue card if you are a:
- parent volunteering at the same place where your child participates in the activities
- person who works at an amusement park, for example a person who dresses as a character in a theme park
- person providing these activities as part of a church, club or association.
