Local sporting clubs able to help support their female members through grants program

Community sporting clubs are able to apply for funds to help cater events and initiatives for their female members through the 2022-23 round of the Victorian Government’s Change Our Game Community Activation Grants Program.

Grants of up to $10,000 are available to eligible clubs and community groups across Victoria to help them create more opportunities for women and girls at the grassroots level.

Minister for Community Sport Ros Spence said removing the barriers facing women and girls getting into community sport has huge benefits on and off the field – from the grassroots to the elite level.

“These grants help create more opportunities for women and girls at a local club level and help to inspire the next generation of female sporting stars.”

Previous grants have been used to host umpiring and coaching sessions to encourage participation.
