Participation fund

• State – $125 per person (up to 6 people per event, per club or organisation).
• National – $245 per person (up to 12 people per event, per club or organisation).
• International – $495 per person (up to 4 people per event, per club or organisation).

Funding is available year-round or until allocated budget is exhausted.

Please read carefully before applying:

• Applications must be submitted before the event – we cannot fund retrospectively. We recommend applying at least three weeks before the event to allow time for processing.
• Each participant can only be supported once per financial year.
• Applications must include all eligible participants attending the same event.
• A selection letter is required for every participant.
• Payment is not made until after the event has been attended.
• All applications are assessed in line with the Community Funding Policy.

If the application is approved:

1. The club or organisation will be notified.
2. The event takes place.
3. After the event, the club or organisation will be prompted to submit:

• A short event report.
• Photographs as proof of attendance.
• An invoice for approved funding amount.

Once these are received, payment is made to the club or organisation, who then pass the funding on to the participants.

If participants do not attend, or the event is cancelled or postponed, the approved amount may be adjusted

Applications are made through the Funding Portal.

Clubs or organisations that have not applied before will need to register before applying.

You will need to provide:

• Event details
• Participant names, dates of birth and residential suburbs
• Selection letters for each participant
