Sydney, Australia: Austability is proud to announce its continued support of Team Australia as Presenting Partner for the inaugural Invictus Australia Sports Festival 2026, Presented by ATCO, taking place in Perth from 23 to 25 October 2026.
Building on Austability’s support of Team Australia at the Invictus Germany Sports Festival in June, this partnership will see Austability support a 30 strong Australian contingent as they compete alongside teams from New Zealand and the Republic of Korea.
The Invictus Australia Sports Festival brings together wounded, injured and ill veterans from across the Indo Pacific region for a weekend of adaptive sport, recovery and connection. The festival will feature indoor rowing, pickleball, swimming and sitting volleyball, providing competitors with an opportunity to challenge themselves, represent their country and connect with others through sport.
The festival extends the impact of the Invictus Movement beyond the Games cycle, creating further opportunities for international adaptive sport and supporting recovery and rehabilitation closer to home.
Ben Khandan, Governor General of Austability, said the partnership reflects the organisation’s commitment to supporting the defence community.
“The Invictus Australia Sports Festival provides an incredible opportunity for competitors to challenge themselves, represent their country and continue building confidence through sport.
“Supporting Team Australia is a natural extension of who we are and what we stand for. We understand the power of belonging, purpose and connection in the recovery journey.
“We’re proud to stand alongside Team Australia as Presenting Partner and help bring this inaugural event to life on home soil.”
Adam Pine OLY, Invictus Australia Director Teams, Pathway & Alumni, said Austability’s continued support would help create an impactful experience for Team Australia competitors.
“Austability understands veterans and shares our values, and that makes this partnership especially meaningful.
“Their support for Team Australia will help us create an environment where competitors can challenge themselves and make the most of this unique opportunity.
“We’re delighted to continue our partnership with Austability and welcome their support as Presenting Partner of Team Australia for the Invictus Australia Sports Festival 2026, Presented by ATCO.”
Austability’s workforce is predominantly comprised of veterans, and the organisation’s continued partnership with Invictus Australia reflects its commitment to the defence community and the importance of purpose, connection and belonging beyond service.
Austability looks forward to supporting Team Australia as competitors come together in Perth this October and to celebrating their achievements throughout the festival.
