Sport and Recreation Minister Terry Waldron recently announced the 38 successful round one recipients saying they highlighted the benefits of the program, which was designed to ensure money was spent on a wider range of sport and recreation programs across the community.
“The implementation of a small grants round is encouraging more applications for funding through a simpler and quicker application process,” Mr Waldron said.
“The small grants are run twice a year and are for projects under $150,000. A total of $750,000 is available for allocation in each round.
“Sport and recreation plays an important role in building stronger, healthier, happier and safer communities, and the small grants make it easier for sport and recreation organisations and local governments to apply for funding.
“This ensures that grassroots sport and recreation organisations can provide the context for communities to be active and reap the many benefits of participation both at an individual and community level.”
