HISTORY OF THE ACADEMY PROGRAMME
The Academy Programme was established in 1998 by Ben Lucas (Paralympian and ParaFed Canterbury Sports Manager at the time). The programme has supported over 100 athletes and coaches since that time, including 33 athletes who were or have gone on to become New Zealand Paralympians.

The goal of our Academy Programme is to have more Canterbury Para athletes and coaches feeding through to High Performance Programmes and representing New Zealand at World Championships and the Paralympic Games.

Those selected in the Academy Programme will receive a funding grant, attend sports education seminars (ie: drug free sport, nutrition, sponsorship), receive assistance with individual sports plans and have their achievements promoted throughout the year.
