The Victorian State Government is offering funding under The Sporting Club Grants Program which will provide grants to assist active recreation and sporting clubs that incurred financial loss during the event lockdowns in Victoria.
Grants of $2,000 for Victorian sport and active recreation organisations with a payroll of up to $3 million, are available to compensate for irrecoverable costs greater than $2,000 arising directly from the cancellation or postponement of events during lockdowns from 11:59pm on Thursday 15 July to 27 July 2021 and 8pm on Thursday 5 August to 2 September 2021.
To check your eligibility and for more information please visit: https://sport.vic.gov.au/grants-and-funding/our-grants/sporting-club-grants-program
If you are not eligible for the above grant, The DSV Competition Grants Commission has set up the “DSV Competition Relief Fund”. This is to assist competition organisers who have had to cancel their event due to Covid restrictions and have incurred a financial loss because of the cancellation.
If you believe you are eligible to apply for the funding or would like more information, please email DSV Chair Anna Longmore email: chair.vic@dancesport.org.au to request an application form.
Thank you for the very important work that our competition organisers continue to do in our industry in Victoria to keep us motivated and going strong.
