We’re excited to see #TeamVeteran gear up in their black and yellow jerseys, embracing the `no one gets left behind` spirit as they tackle @truegritaustralia courses nationwide this year.
This is a unique opportunity for veterans who are wounded, injured, or ill to bond over a military-style obstacle course, where teamwork is key as you run, crawl, and climb to the finish line. Participating as part of Team Veteran highlights the camaraderie and resilience that define the Invictus Australia community.

A huge thank you to @WeAreInvictusGames for their support and funding through the Endeavour Program.

Fast-paced, dynamic, and packed with teamwork—Wheelchair Basketball is a must-see at any adaptive sporting event, including the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025. It’s always a crowd favourite 🏀
With five players on the court at a time, competitors showcase speed, agility, and sharp tactical skills, maneuvering their wheelchairs to outplay opponents, shoot hoops, and defend their baskets. With the same height hoops as in traditional basketball, this sport highlights incredible precision and endurance of all competitors.
Hear from Invictus Games alumnus and former coach Joel Vanderzwan as he shares his passion for this exhilarating sport. Catch the action and cheer on Team Australia next month in Canada.
We partner with the Australian Defence Force on the Adaptive Sport Program to deliver Team Australia to both the Invictus and Warrior Games
