What sport would you love to see Australia dominate at the Brisbane 2032 Paralympics? Image source: Australian Sports Commission.


Para-athletes in the Northern Territory are set to soar with the launch of a brand-new Para Sport Unit in Darwin — Australia’s sixth in just seven months.

Backed by $750,000 from the Australian Institute of Sport, plus funding from the NT Government and Paralympics Australia, it’s all part of a $55 million federal ‘Para Uplift’ initiative.

The aim? Better classification access, coaching, and performance environments ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Paralympics. This new hub means NT para-athletes will have top-tier support right on their doorstep.
