Awards & Recognition

Rainbow Roos was born from a simple but powerful vision: to create a space where every child - regardless of ability, background, or circumstance - can experience the joy of movement, the magic of connection, and the confidence that comes from being part of something special.

 

Over time, our inclusive programs, community impact, and dedication to supporting children with additional needs have gained recognition beyond the pitch.

​

We are honoured to have received awards, nominations, and community support that reflect the heart and purpose behind everything we do. These acknowledgements are a testament to the power of inclusive sport and the amazing children, families, and coaches who make Rainbow Roos what it is today.

​

Below, you’ll find a selection of awards and milestones that we’re proud to celebrate - each one a reminder that kindness, fun, and inclusivity really do make a difference.
