On 30 April 2021 Sport Australia released the latest results from its national sport and physical activity participation survey, AusPlay.

This release includes results from data collected in the 2020 calendar year as well as a report focusing on Australians’ participation and involvement in summer Olympic and Paralympic sports.

An update to the October 2020 publication – Early impact of COVID-19 on sport and physical activity participation – will be released in the coming weeks. This will provide information on any changes in participation from AusPlay data collected in the latter half of 2020, as well as data relating to returning to sport since restrictions eased.
