Deaf Sports Australia has appointed Cindy-Lu Bailey as Patron, recognising her outstanding community service and respected leadership in sport, particularly deaf sport. As Patron, Cindy-Lu will provide guidance to the Board, represent the organisation at key events, and serve as an ambassador.

Cindy-Lu’s sporting career includes appearances at the Commonwealth Games, Pan Pacific Games, and six Deaflympics over two decades, along with significant roles in mentoring and developing deaf sport nationally. She succeeds Kevan Gosper AM, who was a longstanding ambassador.

“Our Australian Deaf Sport Community welcome Cindy-Lu to her new and exciting role as Patron for Deaf Sports Australia.
