The Indigenous Nationals is a week-long multisport competition for indigenous student-athletes held each year.

The annual event aims to bring together student-athletes from universities across Australia to compete in 4 sports - Touch Football, Basketball, Netball and Volleyball.

One multi-disciplined team is sent from each University. Each sport is competed over one day and at the conclusion of the week, one university team is crowned the champion of the games.

Indigenous Nationals is an amazing environment to not only celebrate the rich sporting culture of indigenous Australia but to also acknowledge the heritage and history of the participating student-athletes.

Eligibility

All Monash indigenous students are invited to try out for a Monash Varsity Sport team. Trials typically take place between February and June, depending on the sport and event.

All Varsity athletes must be enrolled in at least one unit at Monash in the year of competing.
