Vale Jane Faulder

It is with great sadness that ACF share the passing of Jane Faulder, a much-loved and valued member of the Calisthenics ACT community.

Jane had just celebrated her 50th competitive year in calisthenics, a remarkable milestone that speaks to a lifelong love of our sport. Her passion was infectious – as was her laugh - and she brought joy, friendship, warmth and a true sense of community to everyone who knew her.

Jane was everyone's champion. She was the first to lift others up, cheering on competitors from every club and celebrating their successes.

Jane was a life member of CaliACT, served on Club and CaliACT committees, and was instrumental in leading and helping establish the ACT Solo Grading Committee. She also gave thousands of hours as a volunteer writer, the role she loved most. Most recently, she wrote for the ACF at the 2025 Australian Masters Games in Canberra, bringing the same care and generosity she brought to everything she did.

Away from calisthenics, Jane's other great love was her animals. She worked tirelessly in foster and rescue work, giving countless animals the care and second chance they deserved.

Jane will be deeply missed by the Calisthenics ACT community. Our thoughts are with her family and friends, her Club and Masters teammates, and everyone in the calisthenics community whose life she touched.

💚 Stronger Together : A new chapter for ACF and CaliVic 💙

The Australian Calisthenic Federation (ACF) is pleased to announce that Calisthenics Victoria (CaliVic) will become a State Associate Member from 1 January 2027. Committed to growing a nationally connected sport, ACF sees CaliVic joining as a State Associate Member as a significant step forward in realising our vision of ‘More People, More Ways, Calisthenics Everywhere’.

As part of the agreement, CaliVic will participate in the 2027 National competitions in Canberra, and will continue to govern calisthenics independently in Victoria.

Together, ACF and CaliVic look forward to strengthening pathways, sharing knowledge and creating even greater opportunities for participants across the country.

The ACF Board would like to thank Kerry Sargent, Tony Hall and Natalie Wallace for their contributions.
