As part of Speedway Australia’s commitment to child safety and regulatory compliance, we are now screening Stewards, Scrutineers and Marshals for Working With Children Checks.
A phased implementation of screening requirements will be introduced for officials and volunteers whose roles involve direct or indirect contact with children or vulnerable persons.
- Key Dates:
November 1st 2026 – Implementation commences.
March 1st 2027 – Mandatory compliance for all Stewards and Scrutineers, and any Marshals or other officials whose roles involve direct or indirect contact with children or vulnerable persons.
Do you already have a Working With Children Check?
If you already have a Working With Children Check, you’ll need to register it with Speedway Australia so we can update your licence portfolio.
Choose your state or territory of issue below and follow the prompts.
If you don’t have a WWCC and are a Steward, Scrutineer, or Mashal who will work in close proximity with children, you’ll need to apply and hold a valid check by March 1st 2027. Choose your state or territory below for more information and to apply.
Depending on factors such as age, occupation, professional registration, family relationship, the nature of your role at a speedway track, and your state or territory, you may be eligible for an exemption. Exemptions must be verified with your state or territory authority with evidence provided to Speedway Australia on request.
