Sporting Network of Autistic People and Parents
SNAPP is a Not for Profit Organisation dedicated to supporting children and families on the Spectrum.
We have an expanding network of families across Melbourne who are keen to get their kids participate in local sport activities and willing to assist in coaching and supervision while they learn and play.
Our aim is to better understand the specific challenges our kids have in learning and participating in sports, tailoring existing training programs to fit our kid’s special needs.
We create programs specifically for our kids, giving them the opportunity to learn and grow in a team environment.

Through their love of sports, SNAPP emerged as place where a sense of community could be nourished and a safe haven for both the child and the parent of ASD kids.
Sporting Network for Autistic People and Parents (SNAPP) was created by Allison & Kris Gately when they saw the need for this program as their son Bruin was diagnosed with Autism.
A specialised sports program for children on the autism spectrum is helping them transition to mainstream sports teams.
Our mission is to develop a network of families who may find mainstream sporting programs challenging or not appropriate for their child’s abilities and match them with ASD specific sporting programs in their local area.
