We are inviting rural school teams and sporting groups to apply for financial assistance through the Sport New Zealand Rural Travel Fund. The fund is designed to help subsidise rural travel for junior teams aged between 5-19 years.

It helps school and club sports teams participate in local sporting competitions.

Please note: The Rural Travel Fund is not for the purpose of travel to regional or national events or available for individual athletes or players.

There is a fund pool of $9,100 available for distribution.

Application forms and further details outlining the fund are available here or by contacting the Customer Services Team on 07 878 0800.

Please read the Community and Partnerships Fund Policy (PDF 263 KB) for eligibility criteria.

Applications close at 5pm on Friday 1 October 2021.
