Shooting organisations across NSW can apply for up to $800,000 in funding under the NSW Government's Safe Shooting Program.
The Program aims to improve the safety and quality of NSW shooting facilities, increase the use of existing shooting facilities, and encourage participation, while supporting the next generation of NSW Olympians.
By delivering capital upgrades to ensure modern facilities are fit-for-purpose, the Safe Shooting program aims to increase participation in shooting by removing barriers for women and girls, people with disability, First Nations peoples, people from culturally and linguistically diverse communities, and LGBTQIA+ people.
Grants of $10,000 - $50,000 are available to shooting clubs, shooting ranges and shooting organisations for improvements to storage, security and safety, as well as new equipment such as electronic targets.
The program also supports projects which incorporate inclusive design, improved safety, environmental sustainability and climate resiliency.
The Program closes 1pm, 23 October 2024. For further information and to apply for a grant visit: https://www.sport.nsw.gov.au/grants/safe-shooting-program
Minister for Sport Steve Kamper said:
"Shooting in NSW has an esteemed history of producing Olympic and world champions, including Michael Diamond and Suzie Balogh.
"The Sydney 2000 Olympic legacy lives on at Sydney International Shooting Centre in Western Sydney and participation is high in regional NSW.
"As we head towards the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games, this program will ensure NSW shooter's ongoing success on the world and Olympic stage."
