Contact us to find out where your closest activities are. Below are the sports we can help you participate in.
Balloon Football League
Balloon Football League (BFL) is a version of AFL that has been modified to suit the needs of people with a disability. The game first started in 1995 by a small group of mates with disability who love footy. Today, it’s played by over 100 people across Victoria.
BFL is played using wheelchairs and a giant balloon on an indoor basketball or netball court. We play in teams of five and are always looking for new players, volunteers and local sponsorship opportunities.
At Balloon Football you can:
- Stay active and learn new skills
- Make new friends
- Be part of a team in a competitive league
- Take on leadership roles and connect to your local community
Balloon Football has a $400 annual membership fee for both NDIS and Fee for Service players.
Inclusive Hockey
Scope in partnership with Hockey Victoria has launched a modified version of hockey. Hockey is a fun and engaging sport which can be appropriately modified to cater for all abilities.
At hockey you can:
- Learn how to play hockey
- Have fun with team mates and friends
