Sporting Schools Funding

Sporting Schools is a $100 million Australian Government initiative to get children committed to a lifelong love of sport. Sporting Schools specifically aims to help schools:

• Increase children’s participation in sport
• Connect 860,000 children with NSO endorsed sporting opportunities
• Nurture children’s lifelong love of sport.

Australian primary schools can apply for funding per term for up to three (3) terms of a school year, to deliver Sporting Schools activity before, during or after school hours using one of our National Sporting Organisation partners. Funding is calculated based on:

• School population
• The total number of participants scheduled to participate in the Sporting Schools sessions; and
• Special circumstances (such as regional and remote schools)

Your application will then be assessed according to:

• Sporting Schools Terms and Conditions
• Eligibility requirements
• Program parameters
