Athletes representing WA for the first time are now being offered a signed certificate from the Minister for Sport and Recreation and a State pin to commemorate their achievement.
State sporting associations can request the certificates and pins by providing a list of first-time representatives to the department.
Eligibility requirements
- If the athlete has never represented WA in that sport previously, they are eligible.
- If they have represented WA in that sport previously, they are not eligible (even if it is a new competition they haven’t entered before).
- If it is a different sport in which they are representing WA for the first time, they are eligible.
