Nationals Member for Tweed Geoff Provest MP says sporting organisations across
“The Play Her Way strategy is a four-year plan designed to create more opportunities for women and girls in NSW to engage in sport and remain involved long-term,” Mr Provest said.
“The Innovation Program will provide funding to recognised NSW State Sporting Organisations and State Sporting Organisations for People with Disability for initiatives that enhance career pathways, build cultures of diversity and inclusion, and increase participation”.
“I encourage our local sporting organisations to collaborate with sporting academies or groups that support women, girls, and under-represented communities to deliver these initiatives.”
“The Program features four streams:
“Career Activations: Projects that promote information on roles and careers in sport
“Career Offerings: Projects that build or enhance career offerings and support sport career pathways for young women
“Participation: Projects that reduce barriers to participation for women and girls and create innovative, inclusive sport experiences
“Capability: Projects that build the capability of organisations to increase participation of women and girls on and off the field, and projects that build gender inclusive sporting cultures and environments.
“Grants of $3,000 – $45,000 are available across the four streams.
“Sporting organisations can apply for multiple grants with the maximum funding available to an organisation capped at $50,000”.
Applications close Thursday, 30 April.
