As part of the recently announced PlayOn WA initiative, 32 Community Sporting and Recreation Facilities Fund (CSRFF) and Club Night Lights Program (CNLP) grants have been awarded to projects spanning metropolitan and regional areas including Broome Motorcross Club, Mount Magnet Recreation Precinct and the Kulin Tennis Club.

Funding will go towards renovations to changerooms and playing facilities and the upgrade or installation of venue lighting.

PlayOn WA is a bold new initiative to guide investment in community sport and recreation infrastructure across the State through to 2030.

The program will deliver 2,030 community sport and recreation infrastructure items across WA by the year 2030, helping to deliver a lasting and positive impact across WA communities.

In this latest small grants round, 20 projects received CSRFF funding while 12 received funding through the CNLP.
