KiwiSport is a national initiative that aims to get more school aged children playing organised sport. It is a type of funding that Harbour Sport manages on behalf of the community. The three main objectives of KiwiSport are:
- More Kids: increase the number of school aged children playing organised sport
- More opportunities: Increase the availability and accessibility of sport for school aged children
- Better Skills: Support children in developing skills that will allow them to participate effectively in sport throughout school and beyond.
Harbour Sport:
Harbour Sport manages the KiwiSport fund on behalf of the community and breaks the funding down into two main streams:
- Community Partnership Fund (Projects up to $30,000)
- KickStart Fund (Projects up to $3,000)
If you are a school, sports club, RSO, NSO, community provider or other eligible organisation, you may be able to apply for either of these funds to help make sport happen in your community. Please see below for more details on each of the funds.
