PacificAus Sports

With the support of partners such as netball, rugby league, rugby union and football, the program creates opportunities for Australian and Pacific athletes to train and play together at the highest level. In doing so:

• Pacific sportspeople will have opportunities to unlock their potential, with access to high-performance training and elite-level competition in Australia.
• Australian athletes and coaches will create new and lasting sporting memories with our neighbours, touring Pacific nations and competing against some of the world’s best.
• Pacific coaches, administrators and support staff will benefit from Australia’s best-practice across high performance sport, and build connections with peers across the region. 

Championing women and girls

PacificAus Sports is committed to making sure that women and girls have every opportunity to take their place as champions in our regional sports community. The program is building on the past successes of women and girls by increasing access to world-class coaching and mentoring for female athletes, and supporting their participation in elite-level competitions. 

The program will also develop female sports coaches, administrators, and support staff across the region. With Australian and Pacific sports organisations working together, we will ensure that our region is a global leader in women’s sporting excellence, on and off the field.
