Opportunities for students with disabilities to get involved in sports are available at various levels throughout the school sport structure, from participation to elite. The participatory (or provisional) level does not require classification, however, if an athlete wishes to compete at a regional, state, national or international level, they will need to gain classification through the appropriate sporting organisation.

NSWCHSSA state-wide competitions

At the recent Sydney East Schools Sports Association Council and Annual General meetings Council members voted not to conduct NSWCHSSA state-wide competitions (knockouts) at the Association level.

As a result of this decision the progression of school teams from Sydney East within this competition will be centrally managed by the School Sport Unit for 2023.

Draws for each sport within NSWCHS state wide competitions are available via -

2023 Sydney East Knockout Draw

All correspondence related to this program should be sent to the following email chsknockouts@det.nsw.edu.au

Please be advised that the competitions will run on a home and away basis in accordance with the advertised play by dates not central venue days.

As a result of this change of process, schools can be removed from the draw without penalty by contacting chsknockouts@det.nsw.edu.au

A full review of state-wide competitions including delivery is planned for 2023.
