Applications are now open for the latest round of the Labor Government’s Athlete Pathway Travel Grants program, after Acting Minister for Community Sport Shaun Leane announced it on Friday 8 July.
The program helps athletes, teams, coaches and officials with travel and accommodation costs associated with competing at regional, state and national levels. It also includes pathway development programs and training for emerging athletes. The funding also covers costs for training camps, competition entry and registration.
“We’re helping our athletes and future champions to reach their sporting goals by helping with travel and accommodation costs, as well as athlete development,” said Mr Leane.
“This program helps our up-and-coming sporting stars take a step to the next level in competitive sport.”
Grants of up to $6,000 are available for recognised state sporting associations, regional academies of sport and state sport and active recreation bodies. Victorian sport and active recreation clubs can also apply for grants of up to $2,000.
Applications for the current round of the Athlete Pathway Travel Grants program will be open until 4 August, 2022.
