NSW Goalball is the main coordinator of goalball events, competitions and school demonstrations in NSW. From Goalball's introduction to modern day time, Australia has the largest Goalball 4 Schools program in the world. Over 4,500 students across 150 schools currently play goalball as an adapted and inclusive Paralympic Sport. Goalball is the exciting team sport played competitively by athletes with vision impairment. The sport was created in 1946 after World War II by Austrian, Hanz Lorenzen, and German, Sepp Reindle, in an effort to rehabilitate and keep veterans with blindness and low vision active. Shortly after the sport originated in Europe, Goalball was inaugurated to the world stage during the 1976 Paralympics in Toronto, Canada and has been showcased at the event following its inaguration. The sport has now been announced as a 2024 Paralympic sport for Paris. Goalball is the original team sport for blind and low vision athletes in the Paralympic Games.
