Disability games' volunteers sought

The Halberg Disability Sport Foundation is looking for volunteers to assist at the Halberg Junior Disability Games - a national, three day sports competition taking place from April 22-24 at St Peter's School in Cambridge.

The Halberg Junior Disability Games is open to eight to 21-year-olds with a physical disability or visual impairment.

Athletes compete in regional teams across 19 sports including athletics, blind cricket, rowing, boccia, goalball and wheelchair basketball.

Volunteers are required at the games for one or all of the three days, assisting with sports events and with co-ordinating the athletes, teams and accommodation.

More than 100 athletes are expected to attend the sports festival style event which includes an opening ceremony at the Avantidrome followed by three days of sports, fun and competition.
