National Sporting Organisations (NSOs)
Developing sport from community participation to high performance levels.
National Sporting Organisations (NSOs) and National Sporting Organisations for People with Disability (NSODs) develop sport from community participation to high performance levels. NSO/Ds in most cases work closely with their respective State Sporting Organisations (SSOs) across Australian state and territory jurisdictions.
The Australian Sports Directory contains the names and contact details of NSO/Ds that are recognised by the Australian Sports Commission (ASC) as the pre-eminent body for the development of their sport in Australia. Recognised NSO/D's may also receive funding for participation and/or high-performance outcomes.
