The Wrap is back, packed with grants, tips, news, events and more to help your community sporting organisation thrive.

We hope that everyone is as excited about the Olympics as we are. We'd love to hear if your sport or club gets a boost from the Olympics. As always, if you have any suggestions for new Wrap content, please let us know.

CLUBMAP is supporting a PhD research project on community sport, and we need your help. We strongly encourage all to complete the short survey below.

Calling all board members, committees and representatives of community sport clubs in Australia!

Join our online survey to help us understand how clubs share knowledge on safety, diversity, administration, and sports. Your feedback will drive positive changes in the community sport sector. Complete the survey anonymously in 15-20 minutes for a chance to win one of ten $50 vouchers—your details will remain confidential.

The CLUBMAP Grants team is growing, and we are committed to providing clubs across Australia with information and resources to secure more funding. A reminder that the Grants Team can now assist clubs with a range of different applications, but as always, CLUBMAP's grant services are free when applying for CLUBMAP's range of services.

If you would like assistance with a grant, get in touch here.

Below you will find some grants that are open, or opening soon:

The Grassroots Cricket Fund aims to strengthen grassroots cricket in line with the Australian Cricket Strategy’s vision of creating Brilliant Experiences and Boosting Participation Growth.

Eligible clubs can apply for up to $3,500. This grant can fund CLUBMAP’s Planning Workshop, which helps clubs operate more efficiently, raise more funds, and get more people involved.

When applying for CLUBMAP services, we can facilitate your application at NO COST to your club.

Applications open on Monday, 26 August. This is a great opportunity for cricket clubs. The CLUBMAP Grants Team has helped many clubs to secure funding in previous years, but you must be eligible to apply. 

We can only assist a limited number of clubs, so get in quick to set up a FREE chat to discuss your club’s eligibility, and how we can help you develop your application.

Email info@clubmap.com.au for more information.

Check out a recent success story below. Legana Cricket Club is a great example of a club that was successful in this grant program to fund our workshop about 18 months ago.

Quite a number of state grants will be opening in the next couple of months. The next edition of the Wrap will have a lot more information on those.

However, there are a significant number of council grants open currently all around the country. As always, we suggest checking your local council's website.

Please reach out to the Grants Team if you'd like assistance with finding a specific grant. Also a reminder to clubs who participated in the 'Be Grant Ready' Challenge to email us to book their FREE Grants Mentoring session.

Sometimes clubs know something's not quite right, but they don’t know what it is, which makes it very difficult to fix. Maybe a few good people are doing too much work, volunteers are burnt out, you're just keeping the club above water financially, and membership and sponsorships are a challenge.

If this sounds like your club, we'd love to help.

An obligation-free chat with the CLUBMAP team to discuss your club's situation, and how to build a roadmap to get the club moving forward again. We want to see people enjoying their clubs.
