Fair Play Vouchers for Sport January 2021

Fair Play Vouchers from Jan 20th 2021

The Queensland Government recognises the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the sport and active recreation community and on Queenslanders who benefit from physical activity participation.

We are committed to supporting the sport and active recreation sector return to play safely.

To assist participants in their return to play, $7.5million has been invested to support up to 50,000 eligible children and young people through FairPlay vouchers.

The latest round of FairPlay opened on Wednesday 20 January 2021 and closes on Wednesday 17 March 2021 or earlier if fully allocated.

FairPlay aims to:

• increase regular participation in physical activity for children and young people from low-income families
• contribute to life-long participation in physical activity for target populations.

Parents, carers or guardians can apply for a voucher valued up to $150 for eligible children and young people. These vouchers can be used toward the cost of membership, registration and/or participation fees for eligible activities with registered physical activity providers.

Attached is a Stakeholder Pack including posters and messaging for the use of your affiliated clubs and associations. Please distribute throughout your networks as appropriate.
