Help Change Lives Through Sports
Playing sports regularly improves quality of life and delays degeneration of disabilities. Our volunteers help make our programmes more accessible to persons with disabilities and promote inclusive practices within our community. Practicing inclusion in our daily lives is a reflection of ourselves and the society we wish to live in.
Who we serve, what we do
We serve persons across all disability groups and offer a wide range of sports at both elite and community levels.
How You Can Help
- Support us in making sports inclusive and accessible to persons with disabilities in the community.
- Learn with us and educate others on how they can practice inclusive sports.

Every action counts. With your help, more persons with disabilities can participate in para sport.
