About the project

The WA Paras are Western Australia’s State football team for athletes with disabilities related to neurological impairment such as cerebral palsy, acquired brain injuries (ABI), stroke injury and certain forms of motor neurone disease.

Football West has partnered with the Australian Sports Foundation to establish a tax-deductible fund to raise money to support these extraordinary players.

This tax-deductible fund will raise money to support Western Australia’s elite footballers with disabilities to ensure they can represent the black and gold at the highest national level with a goal to represent Australia on the world stage in the ‘Pararoos’.

A target of $15,000 has been established to fund players representing WA to travel to Sydney for the Australian National CP Football Championship in September/October.

Please help our athletes by making a tax deductible donation today!
