Country Football and Netball Program

Grant Description

The 2026–27 Country Football and Netball Program provides competitive Victorian Government grants of up to $250,000 to rural, regional and eligible outer-metropolitan councils to develop or upgrade football and netball infrastructure that boosts participation, improves safety and accessibility, and supports inclusive, gender-equitable facilities. Beneficiaries are community football and netball clubs, associations and umpiring organisations using council facilities across Victoria, with a focus on communities that participate less (women and girls, people with disability, Aboriginal Victorians, CALD communities, LGBTIQ+ people and disadvantaged areas) and places impacted by floods, bushfires, drought or economic challenges.
