Our Mission

AHSF was founded to create a dedicated national home for sport and physical activity within the Hindu community. We believe sport is one of the most powerful tools for community wellbeing, it builds healthier bodies and minds, brings generations together, and gives young people a sense of belonging and purpose.

We work alongside Hindu diaspora organisations, temples, associations and community groups across Australia to deliver sporting activities, share practical health and fitness guidance, and create meaningful pathways for emerging athletes.

What We Do

  • Deliver sporting events and community activities
  • Share practical guidance on fitness, nutrition and health
  • Build partnerships with temples, associations and diaspora groups
  • Create pathways for young Australian Hindus to compete at higher levels
  • Organise flagship events, starting with Dharma Games 2026
Dharma Games 2026

Our flagship event.

A first-of-its-kind community sporting festival uniting Australia's Dharmic faith communities. Held on Sunday 6 September 2026 at the Sydney Academy of Sport and Recreation in Narrabeen, presented jointly with the Hindu Council of Australia, with Friends of India Australia as a founding partner.

Founding Partner — Hindu Council of Australia

Both HCA and Friends of India Australia deliver major community events year after year, entirely on volunteer time, and their backing brings real depth and delivery experience to Dharma Games.
