State Member for Ovens Valley Tim McCurdy is encouraging local football and netball clubs to apply for the 2023-24 Country Football and Netball Program grants through their local government authority.
Grants of up to $250,000 are available for the funding of sports infrastructure, including court and oval lighting upgrades, change-room developments and new pavilions for local clubs and communities.
“Local footy and netball play such an important part of life in the Ovens Valley, with many families being involved in their local club in various capacities,” Mr McCurdy said.
“There are many clubs in need of lighting and clubroom upgrades, and this funding will give them an opportunity to complete these upgrades and attract new talents to the club.”
Applications close on October 9.
