June 26th, 2022Sports funds available
Grassroots sports and active recreation clubs and organisations across Macedon are being urged to apply for funding to boost their equipment, skills and administration expertise.
Member for Macedon Mary-Anne Thomas has announced applications had opened for the latest round of the Sporting Club Grants Program.
The program provides payments of up to $1,000 for new uniforms and equipment (including defibrillators), up to $5,000 for training coaches, officials and volunteers and up to $5,000 to improve club operational effectiveness.
Grassroots clubs and organisations in Macedon are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
Minister for Community Sport Ros Spence said sport was the lifeblood of Victorian communities.
“That’s why we’re backing more clubs to help with uniforms and equipment, plus grants to investment in the future through training for coaches and volunteers. This is about helping clubs get back in the game so more Victorians can join in the fun and tap into all the sport and career pathways that grassroots community sport offers.”
