The Andrews Labor Government is creating more opportunities for women and girls to lead on and off the playing field, through the Change Our Game Community Activation Grants Program.

Minister for Community Sport Ros Spence today opened applications for the second round of the Labor Government program, which supports initiatives to further gender equality throughout sport and active recreation.

Grants of up to $10,000 are available to eligible clubs and community groups across Victoria and will establish opportunities for women and girls at the grassroots level to enable them to achieve their full potential both on and off the field.

The Change Our Game Community Activation Grants program highlights the government’s ongoing commitment to gender equality across all levels of the Victorian sport and active recreation sector.

The program has provided 155 grants supporting community sport and recreation organisations to host events ranging from come-and-try days to community forums and educational sessions.

These grants are all part of the Government’s $7.2 million investment in the Change Our Game initiative.
