25.01.2022 We've been a little quiet on here as we believed the work we do was the best way for us to express our support and community. The sports field, operating table, gyms and physio clinics where we do our work was our peaceful protest. We also wanted to make sure the right voices were heard at the right time. We've come to realise that that's not enough. We are striving to do better for our First Nations people and recognise the inequalities that many Indigenous people face. We ...want to have the tricky conversations and we want to listen. Please tell us how we can help. #aboriginallivesmatter #blacklivesmatter #firstnationslivesmatter #indigenouslivesmatter #blm See more

24.01.2022 Check out Isiaiah! He had his ACL reconstruction in August of last year and has been working hard ever since. 9 months post-op and he is absolutely smashing it! It won't be long until he's back on the field. Thanks so much to Shane for the video and his super physios @sportsandspinalnorthlakes #sportingchancefoundation #aclrecovery #sportsandspinalphysio

19.01.2022 For those of you who have had an ACL reconstruction you'll know how much of a milestone this is. Check out Stevie smashing her rehab goals. We know @melbourne.kneesurgeon @daevydrodda_orthopaedicsurgeon @cabrinihealth will be pleased to see her progress. Thanks @sportsandspinalgabba for guiding her through the process. Legends. #sportingchancefoundation

18.01.2022 We're very proud of these boys (the Australian First Nations Sevens Team) for taking home the silverware at the Western Sydney Sevens. It has been a pleasure working with these men.

17.01.2022 Athlete Update: Braydon is absolutely smashing his rehabilitation milestones. His surgeon is very happy with his recovery and said "its the best recovery he has seen". His rehab is going so well under the guidance of Basketball Physio David Hillard. Check out the agility work!!! This is such an important phase before returning to sport. Keep it up Braydon. Champion! and thanks so much @zone34physio for the input!

16.01.2022 Stevie is around 3 months post ACL reconstruction and absolutely smashing her rehab.

16.01.2022 Check out Genesis! Back on her feet after her ACL reconstruction at @Cabrini Health Australia in Melbourne yesterday! Such a superstar. Thanks for the pics. We can't wait to see her progress.

14.01.2022 Introducing Braydon. Braydon is a very talented basketballer and has some big goals. Earlier in the year these were challenged when he ruptured his ACL. He was lucky enough to have this repaired just before things were shut down due to Covid-19. He has used this time to work extra hard at his rehab under the exceptional guidance of Basketball.Physio via Telehealth and a few sessions in the clinic. Working hard on his exercises at home - he is now well on the road to recov...ery. His specialist and physio are so pleased with the way his injury is tracking, they are optimistic he'll be back on the basketball court by December/January. Braydon is hoping that next year he'll be able to go to the States and play in front of college talent scouts. Which has been a life long dream for him. His Mum says "he has grown so much as a person through this process and has big dreams and goals, but has also made plans and options that if they dont go ahead he has new plans and dreams to fall back on, one of those being he is wanting to study to be a sports physio and be able to help people that injure themselves during sport". We are so happy to be a tiny part of Brayden's incredible journey. If you've been inspired by Braydon's story and would like to help us out - you can donate via our website: https://www.sportingchancefoundation.com.au/donationform/ See more

14.01.2022 A pretty cool read. The numbers highlighting Indigenous players' immense impact on Australian rules football https://www.abc.net.au//numbers-indigenous-player/12574182

13.01.2022 Our thoughts are with those affected by the Australian bush fires. We hope you and your mob are safe and well. There is strength in community. Use it. If any of our athletes have been affected, please get in touch.

12.01.2022 We were so excited to hear this week that Stevie is now back training with her team (after her ACL reconstruction in February). No contact yet, but so close. She has worked so hard on her rehab. An absolute star! #sportingchancefoundation

11.01.2022 We are so grateful to have the support of Cabrini Hospital and surgeons Scott Tulloch and Daevyd Rodda. This is them in action yesterday.

01.01.2022 This Reconciliation Week has reminded us that we are all in this together. For us at Sporting Chance Foundation we believe that sport is a powerful medium to demonstrate leadership, build community, convey strength and show compassion. We hope that with all that is going on in the world at the moment that our community uses sport as a platform for positive change. We see amazing demonstrations of strength everyday and are so proud of our community. We want to encourage ever...yone to be kind to one another. Big love from all of us at Sporting Chance Foundation. #nrw2020 #nrw2020 See more
