The Rural City of Murray Bridge is the location of the 23rd annual South Australian Masters Games.

Our community looks forward to warmly welcoming competitors, and their accompanying family and friends, from around Australia and overseas to our proud regional city.

The South Australian Masters Games is a multi-sport event designed to allow adults opportunities to participate in the sports of their choice and to compete with their age peers.

The opportunity to participate, compete and to be physically active is the main motivation for competitors and whilst winning is important, social interaction is also a very important feature of the games.

A simulated fruit fly outbreak exercise will be held in the Riverland to ensure the local horticulture industry and government are ready to respond to such an event.

Exercise Fruit Fly Ready will simulate an outbreak of Queensland fruit fly in the South Australian Riverland during peak harvest activity and test the industry’s responsiveness.

Aimed at industry and growers in the Riverland, participants will experience what it is like to respond to a fruit fly outbreak and learn what processes occur in the response and recovery phases.

The simulated exercise aims to clarify high level roles during an outbreak, improve stakeholder awareness and highlight opportunities for improvements.

South Australia is the only mainland Australian state that is fruit fly free.

The estimated farm-gate value of South Australia’s horticultural produce vulnerable to fruit fly infestation, including wine grapes, was $1.25 billion in 2016–17.

The simulated exercise is being run by PIRSA, through Biosecurity SA, with support from Regional Development Australia Riverland and Murraylands and the Riverland Fruit Fly Committee.

Bookings & Registration

The exercise is being held at the Renmark Club on 3 May 2018.

Numbers are strictly limited. If you want to participate, please RSVP by 18 April to nic.smith@sa.gov.au.
