State-based Jackaroos Academy

October 2024 saw the launch of State-Based Jackaroos Academies, taking the place of the former Pathways squad.

Jackaroos State-Based Academies will be managed by the state-based BA Performance Pathways Coaches in partnership with each specific state association, coaches and selection committee in a combined effort to bring the nation’s rising stars through the pathway on their journey towards future podium success. 

With a focus on creating a connected team environment, providing education around High Performance, behaviours and culture, the academies across Australia will aim to support and enhance the potential and current representative athletes on their development journeys, as a conduit and in conjunction with, state based programs including juniors through to open state representative teams.
