The 10th round of FairPlay vouchers has opened to help eligible families of young Queenslanders with the cost of signing up with a local sports or active recreation clubs.
Sport Minister Michael Healy said FairPlay vouchers would deliver up to $150 for club membership, team registration, or participation fees.
Voucher applications opened on January 24 and will close on May 1.
The vouchers will be redeemable at participating clubs until June 12.
In an added bonus, the expiry date of more than 4000 vouchers from Round 9 has been extended.
This will allow these vouchers to be presented to clubs and organisations until May 1, 2024. Clubs and organisations can also redeem Round 9 FairPlay vouchers until June 12, 2024.
Since the program began in 2019, an investment of over $27 million has resulted in more than 182,000 vouchers redeemed by eligible families.
The FairPlay program is part of the State Government’s 10-year Activate! Queensland Strategy to get more Queenslanders moving more often.
Parents, carers, or guardians can apply for a FairPlay voucher if their child is aged between 5-17 years and they have a valid Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card with the child’s name on it.
Applications can be made through a referral agency for families without a government concession card.
