Local sporting clubs across the state are encouraged to apply for a fresh round of funding grants launched by the state government.
On Wednesday, Community Sport Minister Ros Spence announced that 672 grants were available through the latest round of the Sporting Club Grants Program aimed at supporting players, coaches, volunteers and officials involved in community sport and recreation.
The program provides grants of up to $1,000 for uniforms and equipment; up to $1,500 for resources that improve governance and engagement; up to $5,000 for projects to strengthen volunteering and officiating; up to $5,000 to deliver a new sport or recreation program and up to $750 to support athlete travel.
“We’re making it easier for more Victorians to get involved in local sports, which keeps people healthy and connected with their community,” Ms Spence said.
“We’re proud to provide this boost that opens up a range of opportunities on and off the field.”
Applications for the new round of the sporting club grants opened on 25 February and will close on 7 April 2026.
