Disability Sport & Recreation (DSR) has been provided Rapid Antigen Testing kits, courtesy of the Victorian Government. The tests will be distributed to DSR members with a disability and to organisations in the disability sport & recreation sector.
With the wheelchair rugby season about to start, we want to make sure our members have the opportunity to watch and participate. We all want to see our favourite athletes tear it up on the court. However, with the disability community being most at risk to COVID-19, we all have to do our part to ensure a safe return to sport and recreation.
We will be distributing to DSR members with a disability and partnering with other organisations to reach more people with disability.

When to use a Rapid Antigen Test
When you start to feel unwell with symptoms that could be caused by COVID-19
When someone you live with (household contact) or recently spent time with (social/work/education contact) tells you they have tested positive
When you want to check that you don’t have COVID before going to a large social event or visiting vulnerable people (such as an elderly relative in a nursing home)
