What are the types of sport and recreation activities you can link me to?

AAA Play can link you to many physically active opportunities within your local area, provided there are programs available in your chosen sport. If not, we will present you with opportunities in other areas so that you can still participate if you choose to do so. So, whether you wanted to join a gym group at the local recreation centre, go horse riding, access swimming lessons, enjoy some fishing, join a lawn bowls competition, have a game of football, basketball, soccer, netball or cricket, join gymnastics, go dancing or even go target shooting, we can find the opportunities that are available in your area and put you in contact with them! We want you to get out and enjoy as many sport and recreational activities as possible, so we will do all we can to find everything that is out there!

I can’t find a suitable sport or recreation program, what do I do?

If you can’t find what you are looking for, set an alert to be notified when new activities become available. You can email us at request@aaavic.org.au or phone AAA Play and we can assist you. You can also contact the sport directly.

Does AAA Play provide sport and recreational programs?

While we would love to have the opportunity to provide sport and recreation programs to you, we have decided it would be best to leave this up to the professionals and focus on connecting you with these opportunities. Head to Find an Activity to find something near you. 

Can AAA Play enrol me into a Sports or recreation program?

We are an information and referral service that work with State Sporting Associations and Local Councils to list the activities on the website. For enrolments and further information about a club/organization, you will need to contact them directly. 

Are the programs listed on the AAA Play website funded by the NDIS?

AAA Play is funded by the government and is a free service provider therefore we have no ties with the NDIS. You will need to contact the club/organization directly to find out if the program is NDIS funded. 

How do I get my organisation’s programs listed on the AAA Play website?

All activities need to be AAA funded, affiliated with a State/Regional Sporting Association, a Local Council, or a peak disability or sporting organisation. This ensures the programs are of high quality.  If you meet these requirements, contact us on 1800 222 842 or email request@aaavic.org.au with the details of your activity.  

I would like to promote some events through AAA Play’s social media channels?

If you have events such as Come and Try Days or program launches, be sure to let us know. The best way is to contact us via email request@aaavic.org.au and send us an image of your event and the event details.
