Sporting organisations to have signed up include Swimming Australia, Athletics Australia, Australian Cycling, Rugby Australia, Paddle Australia and a many others, including para associations such as Blind Sports Australia and Boccia Australia. “We’re trying to leverage the excitement around the Olympic and Paralympic Games. We know that people see it and they get excited about getting into sport, so we’re trying to really utilise that. The Australian sports system has seen significant investment towards sports, and there’ll be more support for athletes.
“I know there’s lots of different doors that can be open for the kids leading into Brisbane and I think that’s pretty exciting.”
