Clubs | Sport and Recreation Emergency Flood Assistance Program

Our thoughts are with our members, their families and all Victorians who are impacted by the devastating flood crisis across Victoria. 

In response to the devastating floods impacting Victoria, Sport and Recreation have announced a Community Sport Emergency Flood Assistance Program for eligible sport and active recreation clubs that have been impacted by the October 2022 Victorian floods. 

The program provides eligible clubs with a $5000 one-off grant to assist in the replacement of items that have been lost, damaged or destroyed.

Funding can be used to replace playing equipment, injury prevention equipment, first-aid equipment, non-participation equipment, clubroom items and maintenance equipment.

Applications for the grants are open until 5pm 13 January 2023 or until funding is exhausted.  

To apply, visit the Sport and Recreation website

For more information, contact Sport and Recreation on 1800 325 206 or [email protected]

VRFish is a recognised state sport and active recreation body through Sport and Recreation Victoria. As a member of VRFish, your club or association may be eligible for funding and assistance through Sport and Recreation Victoria.
