Goals for Inclusion: Revesby Workers Club’s Kick-Off with Sydney FC’s Disability Program

In collaboration with Sydney FC’s grassroots disability programs, Revesby Workers Club funded $15,000.00 to expand this initiative into the Canterbury-Bankstown LGA. Many children with disabilities express interest in sports but often face limited opportunities for inclusive activities in their local communities. Recognising this gap, the new program has been launched at Caroline Chisholm School, offering a platform for children to explore and develop skills through engaging in physical activities alongside a dedicated Sydney FC representative.

The program, which kicked off in January 2024, featured weekly sessions where each child is encouraged to participate in interactive group soccer play tailored to their abilities. Beyond enhancing physical skills, these sessions prioritise the social well-being of participants, fostering a sense of inclusion and belonging. By engaging in these activities, the children not only strengthen their mobility and core physical skills but also form meaningful connections with their peers and coaches.

This program uplifts these remarkable children by providing opportunities for personal achievement within a supportive and inclusive environment, enabling them to thrive both on and off the field.
