Our vision is for kids and families to play and stay in the game
At the age of 12, 70% of Australian kids are playing sport (which is A-MAZING!). But by the age of 20, only 20% of Aussies are still in the game. That’s just not good enough, and it has significant and measurable impacts on physical health and mental health. Plus, it doesn’t sounds very fun!
We’re on a mission to encourage kids and adults to ‘play on’, by breaking down the barriers that stop people playing and staying in the game, and making more kids and adults feel welcome and excited about the wonderful opportunity of sport.
