Sports and Recreational Sites Subsidy Scheme
These operators of Sports and Recreational facilities are not-for-profit organisations such as “national sports associations”, district sports associations, uniformed groups and non-governmental organisations. They provide various Sports and Recreational facilities such as water sports centres and ball games training centres, etc. All the Sports and Recreational facilities on the sites have been suspended with the Government’s appeal for social distancing on 23 and 24 March 2020.
To provide immediate financial relief to the operators of Sports and Recreational facilities on Government sites, we propose to provide a subsidy of $100,000 to each affected site.
The total amount of subsidy involved is around $8 million.
