Our National Team; The Australian Sliders

The Australian Sliders are our national powerhouse in Powerchair Hockey, representing the pinnacle of talent and dedication in the sport. Comprising a diverse group of skilled athletes, the Sliders train rigorously to refine their skills, tactical understanding, and teamwork. With a shared passion for the game, they embody the spirit of resilience and determination, striving to excel on the international stage. As they prepare for the upcoming Powerchair Hockey World Championship in 2026, their commitment to representing Australia and inspiring the next generation of athletes is stronger than ever. The Sliders are not just competitors; they are role models, showcasing the incredible potential of athletes with disabilities.

Recently, we’ve embarked on an exciting new chapter for the Australian Sliders with the addition of Berrie and Marcel as our coaches. Their extensive experience and deep passion for Powerchair Hockey bring invaluable expertise to our team, significantly enhancing our training and competitive strategies. Both coaches are dedicated to cultivating an environment of growth and excellence, ensuring our athletes receive the highest level of guidance and support. With Berrie and Marcel at the helm, we are more equipped than ever to elevate our performance as we prepare for the upcoming Powerchair Hockey World Championship. This partnership not only strengthens our team but also inspires our athletes to reach new heights and realise their full potential on the international stage.
