SASMA recently visited the APY Lands, working with the PYEC who funded this important trip through SA Recreation and Sport grant programs ✈️

We delivered valuable sports safety education to local school students, Aṉangu Educators and Teachers from right across this beautiful part of remote SA, covering concussion, taping, transport, development opportunities and much more! 🧠💪

Such a rewarding experience and most importantly, student and teacher engagement and feedback were positive 👏

We feel privileged to have had this opportunity, and we look forward to working with Jack Redden, the PYEC team and APY community into the future.
