Sports funding workshop

A workshop will be held at Woy Woy Leagues Club on Wednesday, April 26, commencing at 7pm, to assist sporting groups in applying for funding.

Member for Peats Ms Marie Andrews had urged local sporting groups to apply for funding to build more local sport and recreational facilities.

Ms Andrews said the funds would be made available under the NSW Government's Capital Assistance Program.

"This grants scheme is a practical solution to the obesity problem.

"It's about getting people more active, more often," Ms Andrews said.

Those eligible to apply for the grants include not-for-profit sport and recreation groups and local councils.

"This grants program provides groups with up to 50 percent of the net project cost, with the value of voluntary labour and donated materials from the community included as part of the applicant organisation's contribution," Ms Andrews said.

Ms Andrews said over the last three years, groups in the Peats area had received funding including $8200 for synthetic cricket wickets at Rogers Park and McEvoy Oval, Umina.
