What sport costs $1200 per hour?
Fair fukken dinkum you are a pair of hardarses! (smiley face thingee)
At least it is some acknowledgement of both the importance of and the high cost of sport especially to struggling families with multiple kids.
I have been in the situation where I have paid another kids fees because his single mother with a dead beat ex couldn't afford it, and have several times approached jnr club administrators for special circumstance consideration on behalf of others.

Yes I was only joking Woodsie, the $$ will be welcome and will actually be close to half of netball and athletics for my 3.

Yeah me too but man, it doesn't go a long way. Last year my eldest who is only 6 and in kindy, did swimming classes (~$80 a month), gymnastics ($250 a term), nippers ($150 for the season) and jiu jitsu ($15 a class). We like to keep her active and so we've only got ourselves to blame, but still, $100 doesn't go far...

At a guess this is not designed for you (or me) rather for the famalies that struggle to get their children into any sport program
You always had a dream of being a female gymnast??

Trouble with the scheme is that its likely not going to be used for what its intended for. Why not pay junior clubs the cost of registration, equipment and sports gear including clothing, for each child who applies to play a sport. That way you've got a better chance that the money will be used to encourage kids to participate in a sport, and not have a financial burden on the parents.

Yeah it will be mate. Not a cash inducement and details of the club registration etc etc need to be supplied and then it is paid direct as I understand, which is good.
Yep a simple numbered voucher that is given by the parent to the club and redeemed by the club for payment by the Gov't.
