The Active Kids program will be doubled so that two $100 vouchers will be available in one calendar year to help families pay for sports and other activities.
The aim of the expanded program is to pay for two separate sports such as netball in winter and swimming in summer, or two separate seasons or terms of the one sport such as winter soccer and summer soccer.
In 2019 a second $100 Active Kids voucher will be available for the six-month period from July 1 to December 31.
From 2020 two $100 Active Kids vouchers will be available from Service NSW for the entire calendar year.
The two vouchers cannot be combined to pay for one single program costing more than $100. They can be used with the one provider to help pay the cost of two separate terms of sport such as the summer and winter season of netball.
To apply for the Active Kids voucher, parents can register online with Service NSW and find a registered sport, club, or organisation to use their voucher with.
