The Victorian Government is helping families with cost of living pressures and getting kids active with a new round of the Get Active Kids Voucher program.
Minister for Community Sport Ros Spence visited Kensington Aquatic Centre to announce the opening of applications for Round 11 of the program.
Thousands more Get Active Kids Vouchers will be available for children from 10AM, 15th September to help reduce the cost barrier for kids to participate in sport.
Since launching in 2020, more than 270,000 vouchers have been snapped up by families to help cover the costs of sporting memberships, registration fees, uniforms and equipment.
Eligible families can apply for vouchers of up to $200 per child across more than 70 sport and recreation activities, from AFL to water polo.
That means more sports options for families, helping young athletes follow their passion.
More than half of families that received vouchers in Round 10 said their kids would not have been able to participate without these vouchers.
A special consideration stream is also available to support children in care, temporary or provisional visa holders, migrants and international students.
Applications for the current round close 13 October 2026, or until the voucher allocation is exhausted.
