Victorian kids eligible for financial support to get back into footy


16 MAR 2021

The Get Active Kids Voucher Program is a Victorian first and supports children and families to get involved in organised football in 2021 through financial assistance.


The Victorian Government is helping to make sure kids have the opportunity to be active by providing vouchers valued up to $200 each, to help eligible families with the cost of memberships or registration fees, equipment or uniforms.


The $21 million program will support 100,000 vouchers and help Victorian children to get back onto the footy field – to have fun with their friends.


Importantly, the program will also support our clubs and associations by enabling them to re-engage participants, attract new participants and provide them with additional revenue to help them recover from the impacts of COVID-19.


Get Active Kids Vouchers is part of the Get Active Victoria initiative, which is helping families to move more, every day.
