Queensland Spirit: The Road to 2032

Queensland is in the middle of a defining decade for sport.

As we build towards the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a lasting sporting legacy that benefits communities across the state and cements Queensland as the home of Australian sport.

To help shape that legacy, the Queensland Government invited Queenslanders to share their ideas through the What does 2032 mean for you? discussion paper.

We heard from individuals, clubs, volunteers, athletes, sporting organisations, local governments and communities across Queensland about the future they wanted to see for sport. More than 400 people attended consultation sessions across the state, alongside almost 2,000 survey responses and more than 90 written submissions.

Queenslanders told us they wanted to:

• help more people be active, regardless of their age, ability or where they live

• make better use of local places and spaces

• strengthen community sport and support volunteers

• attract world-class sporting events

• build a strong, inclusive and innovative sport industry

• maximise the opportunities and legacy of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

This valuable feedback has shaped Queensland Spirit: The Road to 2032—the Queensland Government's long-term strategy for sport.

The strategy is the first stage of our plan to build a lasting sporting legacy before, during and beyond 2032. It sets a clear direction to help more Queenslanders get active, support thriving clubs and volunteers, strengthen pathways from grassroots to gold, grow the sport industry and ensure every community shares in the opportunities of the green and gold decade.
