The company will be responsible for travel arrangements for up to 1,000 family members and friends who will support the athletes between October 20 and 27.

Michiel Aulbers, global commercial head of sports at ATPI Sports Events, said: "It is a great honour for us to be the official travel partner of the Invictus Games Sydney 2018.

"As a business we are experienced in dealing with elite athletes, but we are in awe of the determination and commitment shown by the men and women heading for the Invictus Games in Sydney.

"Everyone here is very much looking forward to helping make the Games a success."

The Games were founded in 2014 by Prince Harry and are open to wounded, injured or ill defence personnel and veterans.

The Sydney Games will include 11 medal sports with events taking place across Greater Sydney, including the Harbour and Sydney Olympic Park.

The first edition of the Games was held in London in 2014, followed by Orlando in 2016 and Toronto in 2017.

Sydney will use some venues that were built for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games this year.

The next Invictus Games will be held in The Netherlands, who have attended all editions of the Games, with further details to be announced.
