Apply for up to $10,000 for active adults

G4G™ grant rounds happen twice per year, with each round themed at increasing participation in grassroots sport.

G4G™ program grants up to $10,000 to community-based organisations and clubs, assisting them to fund activities and programs focused on increasing participation of local community members in sport. There are so many benefits of community-based sports participation such as social inclusion, healthier lifestyles and the development of teamwork and leadership skills, and G4G™ is all about ensuring our communities can maximise the benefits of sport.

OPEN NOW! November 2016 – Active Adults.

This is the latest theme and applies to G4G™ applications from Friday, 4 November 2016. This theme aims to increase sport participation at an adult level, as statistics show that sport registration numbers drop significantly once Australians turn 18. It also aims to encourage participation in social/community-level sports that focus on teamwork, social inclusion, and friendship. This can be for traditional organised sports or modified social sports that suit a busy adult lifestyle.
