Get Skilled Access

A fantastic night celebrating the people and organisations helping move disability inclusion forward in sport.

We were especially pleased to see Tennis Victoria receive the Sport Initiative of the Year - VIC Accessibility & Inclusion Profile award.

The profile began through collaboration between Tennis Australialia, Tennis Victoria and GSA, bringing accessibility expertise and the perspectives of people with lived experience into the development process.

What makes the initiative so valuable is its practicality - helping clubs better understand accessibility, identify achievable improvements and give people with disability clearer information so they can make informed choices about participation.

It was also a special night for our wider team, with Sport4All Inclusion Coach

Shivam Wheeler recognised as a finalist for Community Member of the Year for his work across Gippsland with GippSport.

From practical accessibility tools to community-based inclusion work, it was great to see different parts of the same broader effort recognised on the night.

Congratulations to all the finalists and winners, and to Disability Sport and Recreation for another fantastic event.

Great to see Sport4All continuing to grow its presence, this time in the City of Wanneroo.

At the heart of the program is a simple but important approach - working alongside communities and drawing on lived experience to turn inclusion into practical, everyday action.

Thank you to the City of Wanneroo, Jordan Wright JP and everyone supporting the program’s next chapter in WA. We’re excited to see what’s ahead.

Every great event starts by listening.

Creating accessible and inclusive experiences doesn't begin when the gates open. It begins by listening to the people who experience events in different ways.

Brisbane 2032 is inviting people with disability, along with their families, carers, support workers and companions, to help shape its Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) by sharing their experiences through a short survey.

At GSA, we know the value of lived experience in creating meaningful change. Through our work across accessibility, disability inclusion and programs like Sport4All, we've seen firsthand how listening leads to better decisions and better outcomes.

If you've attended sporting events, concerts, festivals, community events or other major events, your experiences can help shape a more accessible and inclusive Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The survey takes around 10 minutes and closes on 4 August 2026.

Complete the survey here: https://www.olympics.com/en/brisbane-2032/the-games/impact-and-legacy/diap-survey

This National NAIDOC Week, we're taking the opportunity to listen, learn and reflect.

At GSA, we're fortunate to work alongside communities across Australia through programs like Sport4All. Experiences like these remind us of the importance of listening first and making space for people, communities and lived experience to help shape the work.

Sport4All has shared the story behind its First Nations artwork, created by proud Wiradjuri Elder Uncle Paul Constable Calcott. More than a visual identity, the artwork tells a story of Country, culture and community, reflecting the relationships, conversations and shared learning that have helped shape the program.

We encourage you to read the story behind the artwork and discover the meaning woven throughout the piece - https://sport4all.com.au/sport4all-first-nations-artwork/

The story behind an artwork that has become part of our identity.

As we recognise NAIDOC Week 2026, we're revisiting an artwork that has become an important part of Sport4All's identity.

Created by proud Wiradjuri Elder Uncle Paul Constable Calcott, our commissioned First Nations artwork is more than a visual identity. It reflects Country, culture and community, while telling a story of inclusion through the many journeys people take into sport.

At the centre of the artwork is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander person with disability, surrounded by community and connection. Pathways extend across different Countries, recognising that every person's journey is unique and that everyone deserves the opportunity to participate, contribute and belong.

We're grateful to Uncle Paul for creating an artwork that continues to encourage reflection, conversation and connection across our program.

If you haven't explored the story behind the artwork before, we invite you to discover the meaning woven throughout the piece - https://sport4all.com.au/sport4all-first-nations-artwork/

EOFY usually comes down to one question - Where does this budget actually go?

Not just where it’s spent - what it actually improves. The most useful EOFY decisions aren’t reactive.

They’re the ones that make things easier, day to day:
• Clearer processes
• More confident teams
• Better experiences for the people interacting with your organisation

Not big resets. Not work that sits on a shelf. Just focused work that removes friction and builds consistency.

If accessibility and inclusion are part of that conversation, there are practical ways to approach it.

We’ve outlined a few here: https://pages.qwilr.com/GSA-Service-Offers-yRwGJTGPSJSE

NSW venues planning a Venue Upgrade Grant application - worth thinking about this early.

Most of what makes a venue accessible is decided early - in planning, layouts, and how the space is designed to work.

The Venue Upgrade Grants 25/26 are now open, with funding covering assessments, planning and advice - not just the final build.

Accessibility isn’t something you bolt on at the end. It shapes how people move through a space, how they engage with it, and whether the experience actually works for them.

At GSA, we work with organisations to support delivery - from accessibility audits and planning advice through to embedding inclusive practices across venues and teams.

If you’re exploring the grant, we’ve pulled together how we support delivery: https://pages.qwilr.com/NSW-Venue-Upgrade-Grants-25-26-Advice-and-Planning-AGh3BNEQS9UY
