The program will be spread over three years and there are two streams. Full details are available in the guidelines, however in summary:

Applicants will be able to apply for a minimum of $50,000 up to a maximum of $1,500,000 for projects that support new and upgraded facilities, playing areas and spaces for sport and physical activity specifically for women and girls. For Facility projects in small rural towns, remote communities or very remote communities as, the maximum will be $2,000,000 to reflect increased costs in rural and remote areas.
