COMMUNITY Clubs and associations now have the chance to apply for two separate grants from the state government.<\/p>\n

Last week, Minister for Community Sport Ros Spence announced the state government was devoting $40 million to help clubs with their basic running costs. A further $68 million from the Building Works stimulus package has been allocated to fast-track community sports infrastructure projects across Victoria.<\/p>\n

Ms Spence said with more than three million Victorians involved in community sport and recreation, the benefits of the grants would be wide-reaching.<\/p>\n

“Community sport plays such a vital role in the lives and wellbeing of so many Victorians, and that’s why we are getting behind our clubs.”<\/p>\n

She also noted the funds from the Building Works stimulus package would aid employment.<\/p>\n

“We will back projects that have the support of their community, will create jobs and provide real benefits.”<\/p>\n

Individual clubs will be eligible for up to $1,000 of the $40 million grant, with leagues and associations eligible for up to $15 million.<\/p>\n

Ms Spence said the financial support was timely as many clubs looked to belatedly begin their training, having received little or no income in previous months.<\/p>\n

“This is making it that little bit easier to pay the bills as we start to train again and move cautiously towards a return to the park.”<\/p>\n
