$500 Equipment Subsidy for Football ClubsThursday, March 27, 2014 - 11:46 AM

The West Australian State Government through the Department of Sport and Recreation have cxontinued their support of community sporting clubs through the Community Sporting Club Equipment Subsidy Scheme.

The Community Sporting Club Equipment Subsidy Scheme provides valuable assistance to local sporting clubs in Western Australia to help increase and upgrade shared sporting equipment for club members.

Round 2 of the Community Sporting Club Equipment Subsidy Scheme is now open, to both regional and metropolitan based clubs.

Launched in 2013 for clubs in regional WA, the Community Sporting Club Equipment Subsidy Scheme is part of the State Government’s Supporting Community Sport Initiative, which also features the Athlete Travel Subsidy Scheme.

This subsidy is being made available to clubs by the state government in recognition of the important role clubs play in our community. It is one of the many programs and initiatives which support the development of sport and recreation clubs across WA.

Subsidies for regional clubs are provided through the State Government’s Royalties for Regions program. Metropolitan subsidies are provided through funding from the Department of Sport and Recreation.

Eligible sporting clubs have the opportunity to apply for a one-off $500 subsidy towards shared sporting equipment accessible to all members.
