Kids into Sport
Giving every child in the Tuggeranong Valley the chance to play sport
We believe that sport plays an important role in connecting kids socially and by removing the barriers we’re giving all kids the chance to get out on the field, court or stage.
With a network of over 40 local schools, sports clubs, and community organisations, the program has the capacity to fund registration fees, uniforms, and safety equipment to get them out on the field, court, or stage.
Representational and second sports are not eligible for this program.

The Kids into Sport program was established to ensure that regardless of the barriers, every child in the Tuggeranong Valley is given the opportunity to play sport.
With a network of over 40 local schools, sports clubs and community organisations, the program has the capacity to fund registration fees, uniforms, and safety equipment to get them out on the field, court, or stage.
Over the 12 months, the Kids into Sports Program has helped over 30 kids residing in the Tuggeranong Valley play their choice of Sport locally.

Local clubs and organisations play an important role in connecting us with local children, helping us provide them with the support they need to play sport.
The Vikings Group is conscious of ensuring the privacy of families that participate in the program, and believe it is important for everyone to feel comfortable and supported.
Unfortunately, we are unable to accept applications directly from families.
To apply for the Vikings Kids into Sport program, please reach out to your school welfare officer, sports team, or community sport group.

The program prioritises funding for kids who are unable to meet the costs of sports fees, uniforms, and safety equipment.
Kids into Sport considers applications for funding to anyone who is:
Aged 6 - 17

Applications must be referred by a sporting team, school, or community group.
Please note that only one grant each season can be considered for eligible applicants, and all funds are directly sent to the sports organisation.
“The Vikings Kids into Sport program is a fantastic initiative giving sporting opportunities to all kids in the Tuggeranong Valley. The program has given kids access to their local sporting clubs and has broken down all barriers that might have stopped kids from engaging in organised after-school sport in the past. Outstanding program!”
