Abilities Unleashed Launceston

Disability Sports Australia and Launceston State Schools Sports Association are excited to announce Launceston Abilities Unleashed Kids!

Get active with us in a positive and inclusive environment at the Elphin Sports Centre on Friday 15 November, 2024.

Children aged 5-18 years living with disabilities are invited to this free event. This one day multi-sport come and try day encourages and empowers participants to explore local adaptive sport and active recreation opportunities.

How the day will look

Participants will be split into smaller class groups (maximum 20) upon registration. After a welcome at 1:30 PM, they will rotate across 4-6 stations. These activities will consist of modified sport and active recreation with the use of adaptive equipment to suit the participants. The stations will be facilitated by specialised coaches with the support of students and community organisations.

The formalities of the day will finish at approximately 2:30 PM.  Participants will need to bring their own snacks and lunch in the breaks.

A detailed run sheet will be provided one week prior to the event.

Photography

There will be videographers and photographers capturing content of the event with the intentions of promoting disability inclusive sport. A media consent form will be sent across. On the day, participants wishing to not be captured will be given the choice of a coloured wristband or bib.

Places are expected to fill quickly, register today!
