Telstra Footy Country Grants
The Telstra Footy Country Grants are open again!
The grants are designed to financially assist initiatives that can support Community Clubs affiliated to the AFL, to strengthen the base and secure the future in three key strategic areas:
- Grow and assist volunteer capacity (the grant could fund volunteers undertaking short courses, improving club financial practices, or items to ease the volunteer workload)
- Grow and diversify participation (the grant could fund the costs associated with the establishment of a new or amalgamated club, or the improved participation of females, people with a disability, or multicultural communities).
- Improve club environments and experiences (the grant could fund improved lighting, resources to improve child safety, or security cameras to monitor the environment).
Who is eligible to apply for funding? All Local Football Club’s affiliated to the AFL can apply. VFL, SANFL and WAFL clubs and umpiring groups are excluded.
