The Nationals’ Member for Mildura, Jade Benham, is encouraging all local football and netball clubs, associations and umpiring organisations to apply to funding under the latest round of Country Football and Netball Program grants.
Grants of up to $250,000 are available to make more sport infrastructure developments possible including court and oval lighting upgrades, changeroom developments and new pavilions for local clubs and communities.
“This is a valuable opportunity for local clubs to secure much-needed funding for upgrades. In country communities, clubs often face increasing demand but limited resources. These grants can help deliver modern, inclusive and safer facilities that support everyone from junior players to long-time volunteers.
“Community sport plays a vital role in bringing people together in regional areas. Strong, well-resourced clubs help boost participation, support volunteers, and build community spirit.”
Applications close on Monday, 7 July 2025, and clubs must register their interest through their local council.
