the academy
The South West Academy of Sport was formed to provide support for talented young athletes to help them reach State, national and international levels of competition.
An individual scholarship program and talent development pathways in Australian Rules Football, basketball, cricket, hockey, netball, soccer and tennis give local athletes the best possible chance of making it to the top of their sport.
Access to top tier coaches, specialist training and services such as sports psychology and nutrition round out the program and present athletes with the skills to build a long and rewarding career in sport.
