SNAPP: Sporting Network of Autistic People & Parents
 
 
The Sporting Network of Autistic People and Parents (SNAPP) is a not-for-profit group that partners with mainstream sports groups and runs training sessions and games for kids with autism. The sessions are non-competitive and parent coached. Parents Allison and Kris Gately set up the SNAPP program when they realised starting off with mainstream sports clubs wasn’t working for their son, Bruin, who is on the spectrum.
 
SNAPP is a non-competitive group, and has become a very successful bridging program where our participants go onto mainstream competitive sports.
