The Cadbury Get in the Game Grants Program is providing grants to purchase girls and women’s sports uniforms to sporting clubs around Australia.
Grants of up to $5,000 are available for successful clubs.
Since its inception in 2005, Women Sport Australia has supported and worked in collaboration with stakeholders from around Australia and the world to improve opportunities for girls and women in sport and recreation – both on and off the field.
Women Sport Australia and Cadbury share a vision to empower girls and women and to fuel their confidence through movement and connection.
What is the Cadbury Get In The Game Grant?
The aim of the program is to make participating in sport more inviting and accessible and in turn assist more girls and women to participate in female teams in sporting organisations across Australia.
This program’s objectives are supported by Victoria University’s Professor Clare Hanlon recent research findings that identified inappropriate sports uniforms for girls as a major barrier to girls participating in community sport.
Cadbury will be making donations to Women Sport Australia (WSA) through its partner Australian Sports Foundation (ASF).
This donation will be used to fund the management and distribution of up to $5,000 grants that can be spent on the redesign or purchase of uniforms for girls and women’s teams. Any registered sports club across Australia playing in any official sporting competition can apply.
A short video (max 3 minutes) is part of the application process. This will enable you to enhance your application and other club members including players should appear. The video can be shot on a smartphone (don’t worry about the quality of the video, we care more about your content), and be no more than three minutes. The video should include responses to the following questions:
• What impact this grant would have to your girls or women’s team(s).
• Why you are applying for the grant (can include relevant personal and club circumstances).
• Why breaking down barriers for girls and women playing sport is important.
You should submit an application before 5pm (AEDT) on 10 December 2021. Successful grant applications will be announced on 21 February 2022.
