The Victorian Government’s Significant Sporting Events Program has been helping sporting, community and events organisations for the whole financial year.
Now into its fifth round, the program offers funding for football clubs to host and run events, based around the operational costs it takes to get these off the ground.
In its entirety, the following organisations are eligible for funding:
- National sporting organisations
- State sporting associations
- Regional sports assemblies
- Local government authorities
- Sport conference organisers
- Local sporting clubs and associations
- Private event organisations
- Not for profit organisations
- Venues.
Applicants are required to submit their applications at least six months prior to an event, so now is the perfect time for National Premier League or grassroots clubs to assess their end of season plans or celebration – such as an awards night – and make the most of this funding opportunity.
It is encouraged to call the Events unit of Sport and Recreation Victoria prior to submitting an application on (03) 9623 1429.
