The Invictus Games Sydney 2018 will feature more than 500 competitors from a record 18 participating allied nations and will be held from 20 - 27 October 2018.
The Invictus Games Sydney 2018 will be the Games in which the community embraces our wounded, injured and ill veterans and serving defence personnel and the family and friends who support them. The spirit of mateship will shine as we strive to create a sense of belonging for all, both during the Games and everyday going forward.
The word ‘Invictus’ is Latin for ‘unconquered’ and embodies the fighting spirit of our wounded, injured and ill servicemen and women. They have been tested and challenged, but they have not been overcome. They have proven that by embracing each other and the support of family and friends, they can reclaim their future. They are Invictus.
Most of us will never know the horrors of combat. Horrors so great that many servicemen and women suffer life-changing injuries, both visible and invisible, while serving their countries, while serving us.

This is Great that there is a way for those who are physically impaired still have a way to compete and participate in these events, for recovery, for rehabilitation, for self preservation. I hope this will be televised, I think it should be.
