Wheelchair Sports NSW aims to enrich the lives of people living with a physical disability by participation in sports. The Newcastle Para Track program was established in 2017 to create sporting opportunities in Hunter region for Wheelchair Racing and Hand cycling. It is currently the only organised program in the Hunter that services these sports. Members of the Newcastle Para Track program have access to a variety of racing chairs and hand cycles on a weekly basis, some of which are available for personal loan depending on demand and equipment availability.
The Newcastle Para Track weekly meet currently boast a variety of athletes including first timers, developing racers and national representative’s. The beauty of our program is that it is inclusive to everyone who wishes to attend (including able bodied people!) and every individual sets their own goals including racing for exercise, social or competitive outcomes. From September 2019 the program will introduce our “Club Challenge” competition to allow our athletes an opportunity to show their progress in a more formal competitive environment.
