Sport has something for everyone. It's good for body and mind, and a great way to connect with other people. We all benefit when everyone's included: the individual, the team, and the whole community.
In season four of Choice and Control we're talking about access and inclusion in sport of all kinds, from kicking a footy around with your mates to the Paralympics.
What does it take to get involved and reach your sporting dreams? And how can we make sure everybody gets that opportunity?
Season four starts very soon. In the meantime, here are some of our past sporting episodes to get your ears warmed up:
