Sporting Club Grants Program

The Sporting Club Grants Program provides funding for community sport and active recreation organisations across Victoria.

Important dates: 

Open: 10 July 2026 

Close: 26 August 2026

Access to this funding helps grassroots clubs and organisations address barriers in participation, develop safe and sustainable practices and build social and active local communities.

This program assists organisations to:

• purchase uniforms and equipment that are essential for participation, first-aid and safety
• attract, build the capability and retain a skilled workforce – both volunteer and paid
• increase equity, diversity and inclusiveness
• implement good governance practices
• increase participation of individuals and communities who participate less
• create opportunities so Victorians can participate in ways that suit them
• build a robust sector that responds to current and changing community needs
• support athletes to achieve success in their sport.

Last year, over 20 Clubs and Zones were allocated funds across various categories. This is a great opportunity!
