How to apply

Applications must be submitted online during the funding application period. No late application submissions will be eligible after the application closing time.

To apply, you must:

• submit an online application form via the SmartyGrants link the ASC provided to eligible organisations
• provide all the information we need to assess your application
• consider all eligibility and selection criteria, ensuring you have addressed relevant criteria
• commit to increasing the integrity capability of the sport.

Where two or more NSOs have been granted funding through the Program in 2023-24 through a joint arrangement and that partnership will continue, a single application should be submitted on behalf of the group by the lead organisation.  All NSOs involved in the continued sharing of a resource are expected to collaborate on their application for funding. Applications may also be submitted for NSO’s who are currently sharing a resource to apply for a stand alone resource.

The assessment committee will consider existing partnerships and how these may need to be adjusted.
