Aspiring athletes must be the age mentioned below at the time of testing:

Aged 13 to 30 years in 2023 (born 1993-2010)

The Queensland Academy of Sport is partnering with 9 Paralympic National Sport Organisations in one of the world’s largest Para-Sport talent identification programs.

Our Paralympic Talent Search events are focused on giving you the opportunity to try any or all of our Paralympic sports that you may be interested in. Along with trying the sports, you will be able to meet and chat with some of Australia’s world-class Paralympic coaches and get a provisional classification.

In partnership with the Sports, we will be holding a number of YouFor2032 Paralympic Talent Search events throughout the year. If you are interested in trying any of our Paralympic sports, please register online.

Please note that each sport and event has specific impairment requirements and eligibility criteria. Unfortunately, that means that not everyone will ultimately be eligible to compete in every sport and some athletes may not be eligible for the YouFor2032 program. This will be discussed at the YouFor2032 Paralympic Talent Search events in more detail. All aspiring athletes are invited to register.

For more information about Paralympic classification and sport eligibility criteria, please visit the Paralympics Australia website.
