Australian Sports Foundation

Future Stars Grant backed by Swysh

Community sports clubs and organisation can apply for the equipment they need to help reduce the cost of participation in sport so more young Australians can participate in sport.

The Future Stars Grant program is generously funded by Swysh, Australia’s leading video messaging platform for sports stars, in partnership with the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF). It is designed to ease financial pressure on families; particularly with the rising cost of living, by providing up to $5,000 worth of sporting equipment, including GST and shipping, to selected eligible community sports clubs and organisations with members aged 20 or younger.

The grant helps make sport more affordable and accessible for young Australians by supplying new equipment that allows clubs to strengthen their programs, reduce costs, and pass on savings to families. Grants will be provided in the form of equipment only, supplied by HART Sport. No cash grants are available in the Swysh Future Stars Grant Round.
