Queensland based Motorsport Australia affiliated clubs can apply for the funding if they are registered with an ABN and are either a local or regional level not-for-profit recreational company or community organisation.
 
Motorsport Australia CEO Eugene Arocca encouraged Queensland based clubs to apply for the program.
 
“We have already seen many Queensland clubs receive grants and put that funding towards important projects,” Arocca said.
 
“I urge clubs around the state to take advantage of this opportunity. Government funding for our sport is always deeply appreciated.
 
“The Queensland Government’s Active Clubs program is a wonderful initiative and will provide access to important funds for any club in need of assistance after what has been a difficult two years.”

“I also want to pass on our collective thoughts and best wishes to all communities impacted by the devastating floods that we are currently witnessing in both Queensland and New South Wales.”
