From running onto the field to presenting the Variety Showdown Medal, Wyatt experienced the kind of moments every young footy fan dreams about.
Wyatt is one of our incredible grant recipients, and there's nothing he loves more than footy.
Thanks to a Variety SA grant, Wyatt was able to access an ASD assessment, which led to his autism diagnosis and helped his family better understand and support his needs.
Recently, Wyatt experienced the opportunity of a lifetime as the Variety SA mascot for Showdown 60. He proudly ran out with the Port Adelaide team before presenting the Variety Showdown Medal to the player of the match.
Ahead of the big game, Wyatt was surprised with his very own playing guernsey and even enjoyed a kick with Port Adelaide star Ollie Wines.
It was an unforgettable experience for Wyatt and a wonderful reminder of the incredible opportunities made possible through Variety SA and our valued partnerships.
Every Child Deserves to Thrive
Change Takes All Of Us
Every child deserves the chance to explore, grow, and dream without limits. Their potential shouldn’t be defined by disability, illness, or financial hardship. We work to remove those barriers and open the doors to new possibilities.
