Sporting Chance - applications open Friday 19 March

Do you or your children want to play a sport or join a physical activity club or group? Are funds the only thing stopping you?

Sporting Chance has been established to ensure all Greater Shepparton residents can actively participate in sport and recreation, regardless of their means, through access to small grants. Greater Shepparton City Council together with The Community Fund and FamilyCare aim to provide social and recreational opportunities that enhance the lives of community members.

Playing sport and being physically active coupled with healthy eating is one of the best ways to live a long and healthy life.

One of the biggest barriers to playing sport for some children, young people and adults is cost.

Sporting Chance is here to assist and can fund registration and membership fees up to $80 for approved applicants
