With the ongoing and devastating floods causing many problems for the basketball community across Victoria, the Victorian State Government have launched the Community Sport Emergency Flood Assistance Program through Sport and Recreation Victoria.
The program will assist Victorian sport and recreation organisations directly affected by the October 2022 Victorian floods via $5,000 one-off grants to assist in the replacement of items that have been lost, damaged or destroyed.
The Program is now open for applications from organisations and will stay open until 5pm on 13 January 2023 or until funding is exhausted.
Community Sport Emergency Flood Assistance Program
Basketball Victoria are working closely with affected associations who have lost access to facilities, courts, equipment and events. For anyone who is seeking assistance, please contact your local development officer. We are also working with our partners to plan fundraising opportunities for those affected in the community, more information to come soon.
