Description

We are the peak body for Blind Sports in WA dedicated to empowering people who are blind or vision impaired through sport, recreation, and active living. Whether you’re trying a sport for the first time, chasing competitive goals, or would like to support our goals, there’s a place for you in our community.
Our flagship program, Let’s Get Visible, runs after school in Mandurah, Cockburn and Joondalup providing accessible sport, and physical literacy for children aged 5–15. During the school terms we provide a holiday program full of fun activities. We also support adults young and old to explore or return to the sports they love, working closely with clubs and sporting bodies to help make their programs more inclusive for everyone.

“Inclusive sport matters to me because there is no I in team and everyone is included. Inclusive sport looks like one big happy family all together. I love sport because it keeps me fit and active, and I feel part of a team”
