NSW Football Legacy Fund - Infrastructure Stream - Round 1

The NSW Football Legacy Fund is an initiative established by the NSW Government, Football NSW and Northern NSW Football as a result of NSW hosting FIFA Women’s World Cup matches in Sydney in July 2023.

The Fund aims to improve football facilities and support infrastructure, increase participation opportunities, and improve female player pathways.

The Fund will support football at all levels through the construction or upgrade of community facilities, participation initiatives, leadership and development programs.

A total of $2,500,000 (Ex GST) is available in Round 1 for infrastructure projects. The Fund can be used for upgrading existing or constructing new football facilities that demonstrate inclusive and accessible design, maximise community participation and demonstrate provision of accessible program content.

The key objectives of the Infrastructure stream of the Fund are to:

• Improve the quality and/or number of Football facilities in NSW
• Increase the utilisation of football facilities
• Support the equitable provision of, and access to, football facilities to grow participation for women and girls
• Improve the football experience for players, referees, coaches, administrators, and spectators
