Team Australia named for Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025

The Hon Matt Keogh MP
Minister for Defence Personnel
Minister for Veterans’ Affairs

I’m pleased to announce 33 athletes have been selected to represent Australia at the 2025 Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler in February.

The Invictus Games is a testament to the strength, spirit, and recovery journeys of those who have sacrificed for their country.

These 33 members of Team Australia are a mix of both current and former serving military personnel who have been wounded, injured, or become ill during their service.

The Invictus Games is a unique platform for participants to harness the power of sport in their recovery journey.

These seventh Invictus Games will for the first time feature both summer and winter adaptive sports including alpine skiing, snowboarding, indoor rowing, biathlon, nordic skiing, sitting volleyball, skeleton, swimming, wheelchair basketball, wheelchair curling and wheelchair rugby.

Engagement in sport has long been recognised as a key factor in rehabilitation and recovery for veterans.

Invictus Australia not only supports veterans through international events, but their community sport program plays a huge role in supporting veterans transition to civilian life.

The Australian Government wishes Team Australia the very best of luck, we know you’ll make our nation and yourselves proud.

Team Australia is supported by the Australian Defence Force and Invictus Australia.
