On the 30 March the first round of the football competition was held and there was a total of 20 players in attendance ranging from 11 to 30 years of age. The second round was held on the 18 April 2010.
We are still looking for more players so if you are interested in playing whether socially or on a more serious level then please contact Roy Williams. The more juniors and seniors we get will allow us to split the sides so we have a junior and a senior competition.

The goal of the Cerebral Palsy Sporting & Recreation Association of NSW Inc. is to provide both sporting & recreational opportunities for people of all ages with Cerebral Palsy and other neurological conditions.
The sporting opportunities cater for the person who is a recreational athlete or the person wanting to reach the highest level in their choice sport, ie: World championships and/or Paralympics.
Cerebral Palsy athletes are involved in sports such as: Swimming, Athletics, Cycling, Soccer, Power-lifting, Sitting/Standing Volleyball.
The Association will be offering a variety of social and recreational events for our members, families and friends throughout the year. The events will range from “Come and Try” days in new sporting activities, camp and “just for fun” events providing opportunities for getting together, with the emphasis on fun and enjoyment.
People with Cerebral Palsy participate in sport for the same reasons as able bodied:
- To improve their general fitness
- To increase their social contacts
- For personal enjoyment or to excel, achieve and become the best that they can within their chosen sport.
Like other athletes with disabilities who train for their sport, cerebral palsy competitors have an opportunity to achieve the same sporting goals and rewards as their able bodied peers, to represent their state and country.
The Association also has fundraising events to help our athletes in their effort to attend National and International events.
Coming events are detailed in our newsletter and are also availble by clicking on the Events Tab above.
