The AIS has hosted more than 1000 athletes through onsite camps this quarter.

In the first three months of 2023, more than a thousand athletes, coaches and staff from 19 different able and para sports have taken part in 39 camps.

The AIS remains a unique location for sports and teams to gather as it provides a one-stop-shop where athletes, coaches and staff can live, eat, train and access world-class performance support services.

Among the sports in Canberra so far this year have been some of the country’s leading women athletes and teams, including the Opals, Diamonds and Australia’s Senior Women’s Artistic Gymnastic squad.

The Artistic Gymnastics camp officially began the team’s path to Paris 2024, with the squad looking to build on the incredible success achieved at the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

“It’s been great having all those services here (at the AIS). Physio, doctor, like anything I need, they’ve been really helpful in making me the best gymnast I can be,” said Georgia Godwin, who became Australia’s equal most successful Commonwealth Games Gymnast last year, winning five medals in Birmingham.

Other sports to have utilised the site so far this year include Triathlon Australia’s high performance squad, Table Tennis Australia’s able bodied national squad, and Artistic Swimming Australia’s national junior squad.

The French National Institute of Sport, Expertise, and Performance (INSEP) also spent two days on campus, further strengthening the relationship between the two high performance sport bodies ahead of Paris 2024.
