Ep 86: Cyclone Alfred - Is Your Club Disaster-Ready?

Mother Nature doesn’t care about your canteen, your floodlights or your trophy cabinet. When disaster strikes, the clubs that bounce back fastest are the ones that were ready.

In this solo episode, Michael dives into what’s about to happen, what you need to do right now and how to keep your club (and yourself) safe. Using the PPRR framework (Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery), he breaks it all down:

- Prevention – What should’ve been done already (and last-minute actions to reduce risk)
- Preparedness – Essential steps today to secure your club and protect volunteers
- Response – Rule #1: No club asset is worth your life—stay safe, stay smart and follow official warnings
- Recovery – Post-cyclone cleanup, insurance claims and where to find support.

We’ve seen it all—floating filing cabinets, flying garden sheds and volunteers knee-deep in floodwaters (spoiler: that water isn’t just rain...). Don’t be that club. Prioritise safety—yourself, your volunteers and your community. Stay safe and we’ll see you on the other side!
