- Plan managed & self managed
- Paralympic and NRL experience
- Two clinics, one service agreement
Participants who want to keep competing
We work with NDIS participants who have a sport or a performance goal, at any level. The common thread is having something you are working towards, not the standard you compete at.
Para-athletes
Athletes training or competing at club, state, national or Paralympic level, with programming written around the sport and the classification.
Community sport
Participants who play week to week and want to hold up across a season, or who are working back towards a sport after injury or surgery.
Adaptive sport
Wheelchair sport, seated throws, para-cycling and adaptive aquatics, including the shoulder load that comes with daily propulsion.
Neurological conditions
Stroke, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injury, where the work is strength, walking and the endurance to last a whole day.
After surgery
Orthopaedic rehabilitation under an NDIS plan, with the decision to progress made against objective testing rather than the calendar.
Building capacity
Participants rebuilding after a long admission or a period of inactivity, where the first job is tolerance and the second is strength.
What we do
Plan & Self Managed
You do not need a registered provider. If your plan is plan managed or self managed, you can bring your funding to SportsFit at Five Dock or Gladesville.
Strength & Conditioning
Structured gym-based training for NDIS participants who want to get stronger for a sport, not simply keep moving.
Anti-Gravity Treadmill
Walk or run carrying as little as 20% of your body weight, so you can start moving again before full weight bearing is comfortable.
Exercise Physiology
Accredited Exercise Physiologists building long term capacity for NDIS participants, through exercise that is prescribed, measured and progressed.
Return to Sport
Getting back to your sport after injury or surgery, with the decision made on what you can do rather than how many weeks have passed.
Sport is the starting point, not an afterthought
Most NDIS therapy is written around daily function, which matters and is not the whole picture. If your goal is playing, training or competing, the programme has to be built for that from the beginning.
Three of our clinicians have worked in Paralympic and adaptive sport, at the Wheelchair Rugby World Cup, with the NSW Paralympic Football team and with the Australian Paralympic Volleyball team. Both clinics have a full gym floor and one-to-one sessions. Five Dock has force plates and the anti-gravity treadmill.
Plan managed and self managed welcome
SportsFit does not need to be a registered NDIS provider for you to work with us. Registration only restricts agency managed plans.
