Held: Urban Camp, Melbourne
Days: 2
Age: 10 to 18-year-olds
When VFL/AFL legend Trevor Barker passed away in 1995 from cancer, his friends and supporters decided to continue his passion for helping kids, by forming the Trevor Barker Foundation, which funds the Challenge Trevor Barker Sports Camp each year.
Aimed at learning new skills through sports, such as basketball, hockey, AFL, tennis, soccer and lacrosse. The Trevor Barker Sports Camp is a fantastic way to show kids having treatment that they can still participate in so much, despite their illness. It also allows their brothers and sisters to see them out of hospital and actively involved in something fun.
This weekend camp is ably assisted by celebrity coaches, including Australian basketball legend Andrew Gaze and Olympic gold medallist Hockeyroo Danni Roche.
