Australian Water Ski and Wakeboard Federation |
Australian Water Ski and Wakeboard Federation provides sporting opportunities for people of all ages and including those with disabilities.
Athletes can compete in their own category, and/or against able-bodied athletes, as does visually impaired athlete Kevin Murfitt, who is one of the best able and disabled competitors in the country!
Although most skiers who have a disability ski in mainstream three-event (i.e. slalom, trick, and jump) tournaments including State and National Titles, the Ski-Able Division has members in most Australian States and runs "Have A Ski Days"especially for people who have a disability. Coaching and advice on adaptive equipment is available.
The AWWF sends a National team to the World disabled Water-Skiing Championships that are held every two years. People who have a range of disabilities including blindness and vision impairment, arm/leg amputees, paraplegia, and quadriplegia can enjoy water-skiing.
