Talent Search Program

The Toyota Paralympic Talent Search Program has been running since March 2005. In that time over 500 athletes have been identified as having the potential to reach Paralympic standards and they have been directed into sports and regular training programs.

Do you know anyone with a physical disability or vision impairment? Do you have one yourself? Have you ever considered following an elite sporting pathway?
