Geoffrey Douglas Trappett, OAM[1] (born 18 September 1979) is an Australian Paralympic athlete who won three medals over two Paralympics.

Early life

Trappett was born in Brisbane on 18 September 1979 with spina bifida.[2][3] He grew up in the Brisbane suburb of Albany Creek and attended the Queensland Academy of Sport.[4]

Sporting career

In 1999, Trappett won two gold medals and broke two national records in the Men's 100 m and 200 m events, at the National Championships in Canberra and the Metro Challenge in Toronto, respectively.[2] At the 2000 Sydney Paralympics, he won a gold medal in the Men's 100 m T54 event, for which he received a Medal of the Order of Australia,[1] and a silver medal in the Men's 4x100 m T54 event.[5] He was coached by Brett Jones in the twelve months before the 2000 Paralympics.[6]

In 2003 at an event in Canberra, he set a world record in the 100 m sprint; however he disqualified himself because he had made a false start that no-one else had noticed.[3] Two weeks later he ran the same event in the Gold Coast in a world-record time of 13.99 seconds.[3] At the 2004 Athens Paralympics, he won a silver medal in the Men's 4x100 m T53–54 event.[5]

In 2009, he was one of the first 150 people to be added to the Queensland Sport Hall of Fame.[7]

Post Sporting Career

In 2009 he became the Senior Engagement and Services Delivery Officer with the Cerebral Palsy League Queensland.[8]

Trappett is an advocate for those with a disability. He founded Inclusion Moves which is involved in facilitating, awareness campaigns, advocacy and training in the disability area.[9]

He is married to Masako.
