A football club in Brisbane is giving equal opportunity for challenged-ability young people to get involved in sport.

The Brisbane Paralympic Football Program, was created years ago when Jay Larkin, father of Jarrod Larkins-Law, who has cerebral palsy, found the then paralympic football scene in Brisbane disrespectful.

Today the program is a success, and with the help of volunteers from the Australian Catholic University, it has gone on to continue helping challenged-ability youth overcome difficulties, and give them a chance to play football in a safe and supportive environment.
