Funded by the Victorian Government, the program provides grants to assist in the purchase of sports uniforms and equipment and to improve the capacity and accessibility of Victorian clubs and increase the skills of their coaches, officials and managers.
Clubs can receive up to $5,000 through the program, depending on the funding category.
Applications close 3 February 2019.
Thanks to My Sport Live and Anytime Fitness, a new funding program has been created allowing clubs to be able to stream one of their sporting events for free. The program allows clubs to tap into a fund of $30,000 for the streaming and promotion of selected events.
Any sporting club across Victoria that is affiliated to a Victorian State Sporting Association (SSA) is invited to apply for the grant.
Only clubs affiliated to SSA’s that are recognised by Sport and Recreation Victoria will be eligible to receive funding.
These grants provide assistance to grassroots sport and active recreation clubs and organisations to replace essential sporting or first aid equipment that has been lost or destroyed as a consequence of fire, flood, significant storm event, theft or criminal damage.
Funding is available up to $2,000 and applications can be made up to 3 months after the loss or damage.
