Who We Are

Commonwealth Games Australia (CGA) is a member-based organisation (our members are the National Sporting Organisations (NSO’s) representing the sports participating in Commonwealth Games), which receives no Federal Government funding and exists to administer, control and coordinate the participation of program sports and their respective athletes and officials in the Commonwealth Games. However, we do much more than this.

We relish the role of being both a leader and collaborative delivery agency in the Australian and international Commonwealth Sport Movement and more generally the Australian sporting sector. We see ourselves as an open, collaborative, supportive and high performing element of the Australian and International Commonwealth Games movement. Our DNA is based on being “first among equals” in everything we do.

We are committed to accurately identifying the specific needs of our members, partners and stakeholders and to developing/delivering systems, programs and support designed specifically to meet these needs.

Our Vision

Pursuing sporting excellence  |  Connecting with communities

Commonwealth Games Australia is committed to working with partner sports and high performance partners to ensure the best possible preparation for Australian athletes to compete at the Commonwealth Games.

Commonwealth Games Australia would like to acknowledge our partnerships with the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS), Australia Olympic Committee (AOC) and Paralympics Australia.

Commonwealth Games Australia is also proud to have joined forces with the country’s peak Olympic and Paralympic sporting organisations to launch the national High Performance 2032 Win Well Strategy, aimed at building success towards Brisbane 2032 and beyond.   

State Divisions

Commonwealth Games Australia is represented at State/Territory level by State Divisions.
