Currently, John has in Australia lauched a professional, non-for-profit foundation for Paralympic sports promotion.

The name of this foundation is Parasport Support.

It will be a foundation that strives to achieve ambitious goals in a businesslike manner, with genuine attention and dedication. By developing pragmatic and innovative activities, and by engaging and implementing Paralympic sports in a different way, we want to make a useful contribution for athletes and creating an added value for people with a disability.

2026-2036    Plan of action

1. Creating a strong and independent organisation with motivated employees, volunteers and partners.

2. Working on increasing the visibility and awareness of adapted sports.

We created a website www.parasportsupport.com.au and some Social Media Channels.

3. Starting to support local communities around Melbourne with one focus sport. 

PRESENTATIONS

Over the years many presentations were given. For sport students of universities, support clubs like the Rotary and companies. 

The presentations are appreciated because there is a lot of interaction with the visitors and, in addition to useful and innovative information, they also contain humorous situations that people remember for a long time.

Below some text and photos which were use at presentations with students and companies. 

"It's not about making the best choice. It's about making a choice and then making the best of it."

"Creating new possibilities is much more efficient than looking for the only right answer."

Better results by smart thinking        

Always keep wondering if you really want to belong somewhere.

 

A bottom-up approach rather than the usual top-down management we regularly see in international sports organisations.

 

Collaboration with universities: Vancouver 2010 Olympic & Paralympic winter games with sport students from the Netherlands. 

 

Sharing experience with Tokyo 2020 organisation as candidate city.

 

Serious support for sport courts in Africa is still needed.  

 

In Paralympic sport there is more possible than you think.

Short commercial with a great message.
