Paralympics Australia is the recognised National Sporting Organisation (NSO) for Para Powerlifting in Australia. It is responsible for overseeing the development, promotion, and governance of the sport nationwide, ensuring alignment with international standards set by World Para Powerlifting. As the NSO, Paralympics Australia supports athletes, coaches, and officials through high-performance pathways, talent identification, and competition opportunities, while also advocating for inclusion and excellence in para sport.

The Gen32 Program is a part-time coaching and learning opportunity approximately 1 to 1.5 days per week until 31 December 2026. Coaches will be embedded within QAS and play a key role in identifying, attracting, and developing the next generation of Paralympians.  This role will require occasional interstate travel and weekend work.
