Be Active Wales Fund

Up to £50,000 of National Lottery funding for equipment and coaching courses. For not-for-profit sports clubs or community groups in Wales.

Not-for-profit sports clubs and community groups can apply.

To apply, your project must:

• help more people take part in sport
• take place in Wales and be mainly for people who live in Wales

Depending on the sport or the type of request, the organisation applying for funding may need to be affiliated to their sport's National Governing Body (NGB).

Examples of projects include:

• entry-level training courses, such as first aid or officiating
• hiring venues for new teams

You must contribute at least 10% of the total project cost. In general, for awards of:

• £300 to £25,000, we will fund up to 90% of the project costs
