All Coaches & Managers of Junior Teams Must hold a Blue Card
To work or volunteer in regulated child-related employment or operate a regulated child-related business in Queensland, you may need a blue card.
If you do need one, you must have it before you start working with children-under the No Card, No Start laws that started on 31 August 2020.
Volunteer and student blue cards continue to be free; however, you need to be linked to an organisation to have the fee waived.
If you are a registered teacher or sworn police officer, you may need to apply for an exemption card. If your card does not have an expiry date, you must renew it by 31 August 2023 or it will automatically expire. There is no application fee for exemption card applicants.
