  • The Indigenous Marathon Project Run. Sweat. Inspire Parliamentry Inquiry Into the Contribution of Sport
    Submission 049 The Indigenous Marathon Project Run. Sweat. Inspire Parliamentry Inquiry into the contribution of Sport to Indigenous wellbing and mentoring 1 Submission 049 IMP objectives 1. To promote healthy and active lifestyles throughout Indigenous communities nationally and reduce the incidence of Indigenous chronic disease: & 2. To create Indigenous distance running champions and to inspire Indigenous people. Background The Indigenous Marathon Project (IMP) was established in 2009 by World Champion marathon runner and 1983 Australian of the Year, Robert de Castella. IMP annually selects, educates, trains and takes a group of inspirational young Indigenous men and women aged 18-30 to compete in the world’s biggest marathon – the New York City Marathon. IMP is not a sports program. IMP is a social change program that uses the simple act of running as a vehicle to promote the benefits of active and healthy lifestyles and change lives. The group of men and women are similar to rocks in a pond, with their ripple effect continuing to inspire local family and community members as well as thousands of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians nationally. The Project highlights the incredible natural talent that exists within the Australian Indigenous population, with the hope to one day unearth an Indigenous long-distance running champion to take on the African dominance. The core running squad push their physical and mental boundaries to beyond what they ever thought they were capable of, and after crossing the finish line of the world’s biggest marathon, they know they can achieve anything. These runners are trained to become healthy lifestyle leaders by completing a Certificate IV in Health and Leisure, with a focus on Indigenous healthy lifestyle.

  • Sydney 2016 Woodchop Schedule
    17 - 30 March 2016 Sydney Showground Sydney Olympic Park COMPETITION WOODCHOPPING & SAWING SCHEDULE www.sydneyroyal.com.au Welcome from the President Thank you for your interest in entering a Sydney Royal competition at the 2016 Sydney Royal Easter Show. Agricultural competitions are at the heart of the Royal Agricultural Society of NSW (RAS) charter – to encourage and reward excellence, and support a viable and prosperous future for our agricultural communities. And it’s been that way since 1823. Today, the Sydney Royal competitions held at the Show attract close to 30,000 entries each year from passionate, skilled producers and craftspeople across the country. Because the competitions set benchmarks in excellence, and encourage development and innovation in Australian agriculture, they continue to be an important part of our agriculture industry. For instance, winning a prestigious Sydney Royal ribbon can bring commercial benefits to exhibitors, enabling our rural communities to remain strong and vibrant. And major award winners at the Show have the benefit of using Sydney Royal artwork to promote their success in marketing campaigns. Every year, the RAS works to evolve the Sydney Royal competitions. Our commitment to adapting to consumer and industry trends ensures our competitions remain relevant, encourage excellence and are world-class. The integrity of our Sydney Royal competitions rests in the hands of accomplished, knowledgeable and most importantly independent judges. I’m always impressed by their professionalism, energy and high ethical standards. The spirit of friendly competition comes alive at the Show each year when Australia’s agricultural community come together to celebrate at the Sydney Showground.
