Event information

🌟 Do YOU or someone you know have what it takes to be the next Boccia Champion? 🌟

Boccia is a Paralympic sport of strategy, precision, and skill — and we’re looking for people determined and ready to aim for the top! There are pathways from social through to high peformance. 

Who we’re looking for:
**People with impairments in all four limbs, including:

  • Spinal Cord Injury
  • Acquired Brain Injury
  • Cerebral Palsy 
  • Muscular Dystrophy
  • Motor Neuron Disease
  • Spinal Muscular Atrophy
  • Transverse Myelitis
  • Spina Bifida
  • Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (with the overall strength of grade 3/5 or less in the upper limb muscle groups and trunk)
  • Arthrogryposis
  • MS, TARS Syndrome, Juvenile Arthritis and Osteogenesis Imperfecta (which results in overall poor strength of grade 3/5 in the Upper limb muscle groups and/or limited range of movement)

You must be able to throw, kick, or release the ball without a ramp (adaptations allowed).

**Please note, if do not identify with the impairment types above, there are still opportunites for you to participate in Boccia. Please contact Lily at pathwaysqld@boccia.com.au to learn more.

🎯 No Boccia experience needed — just determination, willingness to learn, and openness to new opportunities, from joining a team to competing nationally or internationally.

🏆 Your journey could lead to the Paralympics!
