2025 WA Lead State Titles - at Oasis Climbing - Event has been Postponed

WE’RE SORRY 😢

We need to postpone the 2025 lead state titles.

One of our key technical officials is sadly no longer available due to something they couldn’t have foreseen ☹. We haven’t been able to source a replacement at such short notice.

We hope it’s just temporary and we’ll be able to announce a date in the new year really soon. Thanks for the understanding.

T-shirt and competition fee refunds are coming - bear with us while we organise this.

National Sport Participation Strategy

HAVE YOUR SAY!

The Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) invites you to provide feedback and input into the development of the Australian Sports Commission’s National Sport Participation Strategy through an online survey.

https://www.ausport.gov.au/national-sport-participation-strategy-2032

The Strategy aims to transform the way sport participation is connected, delivered and supported in Australia and covers a range of areas including:

  • the challenges participants face

  • behavioural trends at grassroots levels

  • what the investment priorities should be in the coming years.

The survey will only take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete, and your responses will remain anonymous.

Survey closes 5pm, 16 June 2023.
