  • THE 2012 AUSTRALIAN TRANSPLANT GAMES

    The 2012 Australian Transplant Games to be held in Newcastle, NSW from September 29th to October 6th are fast approaching! Arrangements are in full swing and it looks like we will be having an exciting week of the Transplant Games. Along with many of the usual events, there are several innovations earmarked for these games. We are introducing a new team event – netball. And we wish to hold a couple of exhibition events where transplant recipient teams are pitted against donor family, living donor and/or supporter teams in volleyball and netball as well as swimming (4x50m) and athletics (4x100m) relays.  In order to give everyone a bit of a break, the Wednesday afternoon and evening will be sport free, allowing those who wish to, to go on a tour of the Hunter Valley. We are also looking at holding all the awards and presentations immediately prior to the Gala dinner to allow everyone to mingle and really enjoy the Gala dinner without interruption. For more information, click here.
