The pandemic has put additional pressure on family budgets, which is why, if re-elected, we’ll invest $7.5 million to make sure that more than 50,000 Queensland kids can get started in sports.
Our $150 FairPlay vouchers help pressured families cover the cost of kids’ sport.
And with more players on the field, FairPlay vouchers also support clubs to stay open for training and employing locals to help manage club operations.
Because every child deserves the opportunities for fun, friendships and fitness that come with playing a sport and being part of a team!
Parents, carers or guardians can apply for a voucher valued up to $150 for their child, which can be used towards sport and active recreation membership, registration or participation fees with registered activity providers.
There is a limit of 1 voucher per child per calendar year.
