Local Sporting Grant Program

The 2016 Local Sporting Grants have closed, but the 2017 round should open soon.

Sport and active recreation delivers many personal and community benefits including developing self-esteem, maintaining health and fitness, nurturing talented athletes and contributing to individual enjoyment of life.

Sport and active recreation can also contribute to a range of government priorities including tackling childhood obesity and building safer communities.

The Program aims to increase regular and on-going participation opportunities in sport and active recreation.

There are four project types within the Program:

  1. Sport Club Development (up to $2,000)
  2. Community Sport Events (up to $5,000)
  3. Sport Access (up to $5,000)
  4. Facility Development and Capital Equipment (up to $20,000)

Applications can be done online at www.sportandrecreation.nsw.gov.au/clubs/grants/localsport and my office is always available to assist anyone who needs it.
