Heads up sporting clubs – this one will move FAST

A new round of the Game On: Teaming Up for Climate Action program is about to drop… and if you’re not ready early, you could miss out.

Of all the community sports clubs across Australia, only 500 will be funded in this round.

💰 Grants of $25,000 to $100,000 are available for things like:
☀️ Solar + battery systems
💡 Energy-efficient lighting
🌿 Climate resilience upgrades

The good news? It’s not a competitive ranking process — if you’re eligible and prepared, you’re in with a real chance.

The catch… ⏰
📅 Opens: 11 June 2026
📅 Closes: 8 July 2026 (or earlier if funds run out)

Translation: this is a first-ready, first-funded situation

Quick eligibility check:
✔️ Not-for-profit incorporated club
✔️ ABN in place
✔️ Affiliated with a recognised sporting body
✔️ Some regional/remote schools may also be eligible

💡 Co-contribution is optional
📍 Projects to be completed by March 2028

If this could be a fit for your club, now’s the time to start pulling everything together — not when the portal goes live.

We’re already working with clubs behind the scenes to get them submission-ready.

The 2026 Grant Round is now open — and there are some important changes you need to know about before you apply.

This year, grants range from $25,000 to $50,000 AUD with projects running up to 24 months. Two key eligibility updates: applicants must have an annual revenue of $5 million or less (noting international projects may be exempt) , and be able to contribute or source at least 25% of project costs in cash.

If you're not sure whether your organisation is eligible, or you'd like to understand the changes in more detail, we'd encourage you to watch our Grants Q&A Webinar before applying — it covers everything you need to know.

Applications close Wednesday 29 April at 4pm WST. Don't leave it too late.

Grants of between $1,000 and $5,000 will be available to eligible organisations to support the efforts of their volunteers. The grants can be used to buy small equipment for volunteers, for the reimbursement of volunteer transport, training costs, or to purchase items that help promote awareness of volunteering opportunities.

Applicants are required to submit an Expression of Interest to their local member of parliament which will be assessed by a local committee. Successful EOI applicants will then be invited to submit a formal application to the Department of Social Services (DSS).
