Community sports subsidy program

Young locals in Brimbank can apply for Brimbank council’s In2Sport program for summer 2025-26.

In2Sport is a subsidy program which helps families and children living in the municipality to get active and take part in community sports, regardless of financial circumstances, according to council.

Up to $200 or 75 per cent of club membership fees are eligible to be subsidised as part of the program.

To be eligible for the program applicants must live in Brimbank, be aged between 6-18 at the time of applying, and have their name listed on a valid health care card or pension concession card.

Applicants must also choose a Brimbank-based sporting club.

There is a list of participating clubs in the municipality that applicants can choose from as part of their application.

If an applicant wishes to choose a sporting club not listed on the form, the club will need to be contacted to fill out an In2Sport club registration form, said council.

Council said applicants will be notified of the outcome via email two to four weeks after the date of application.

The closing date for applications is subject to availability, and council encouraged locals to apply as soon as possible.

Locals can apply for the program and view the full eligibility requirements on the Brimbank council website.
