Nationals - Vic Cerebral Palsy State Team

We are the Victorian state representative team for Cerebral Palsy Football (CP Football) for footballers with Cerebral Palsy, Brain acquired injury or Stroke related symptoms.

Our program starts in March each year where we train and compete in the All Abilities League weekly. Football brought the team together but beyond that, it is a family where everyone can be free to be themselves and enjoy the beautiful game.

“This team is very special to me. We’re more than a team of footballers with disabilities - we’re a family and we all are determined to see this team be successful.” - Matthew Holland (Captain)

Towards the end of the regular football season, we select 12 players to compete at the National Cerebral Palsy State Championships in October. Check out our videos below to see what we get up to in training:







The National Cerebral Palsy Football Championships in held in Valentine Sports Park, NSW in October each year where each state sends a representative team to compete. The opportunity to play in this competition gives our players a platform to showcase their talent and a chance to be recruited and scouted to represent Australia in the National team, the Pararoos.

For the past 3 years, we have come 2nd after losing the Grand Finals and we are hungry for the 1st place win more than ever.



We need your help to put us in the best position to take home the 1st place trophy. We are trying to raise money for our team to help subsidize our team entry, travel, accommodation & uniform costs. It currently costs minimum $850 per player. This excludes uniform costs and other overheads. For the first time ever, we will also be holding a training camp before Nationals!

Some of the ways you can help us are:

- Donate to this campaign (any amount would be of great help towards our goals and to send us to Nationals this year)

- Share this campaign and our story to your friends, family and network

- Follow us on Facebook ( Victorian Paralympic Football Program ) and Instagram ( @vicparafootball ) to journey with us.

We thank you in advance for your support and we hope to make you proud!
