Delivering training, workshops and resources to support and empower organisations to lead with a person-first approach and drive inclusive practices that make sport more inclusive for all.
Providing expert guidance to sporting bodies, government and community organisations to promote opportunities for people to participate in sport in all roles and levels, from grass roots to high performance sport.

About Us
We are Sport Inclusion Australia, a national sporting organisation that works through advocacy, partnerships, and building skills and confidence to help individuals and organisations create inclusive pathways – from local clubs to high performance sport.
Real people. Real stories. Celebrating the impact of inclusion through sport.
“The Commonwealth Games was a great experience, we didn’t swim till the last day, but it was wonderful being in the team and supporting and being supported by all swimmers”
“I struggled with my diet when I was in Paris last year, so this year I will focus on my diet eating more protein and getting my pre-race meal right to ensure I am in the best condition for my race.”
“To think that I’ll be at school one day and the next on a plane to compete on the biggest stage across the other side of the world is hard to get my head around it.”
Working with key partners to leverage Sport Inclusion Australia expertise and support to enable the inclusion of all in the community through sport.
