Sports clubs
The City of Port Phillip is committed to the ongoing training and development of sporting clubs.
We will facilitate sustainable and high-quality sports club development initiatives in partnership with local, regional and state organisations. These initiatives will encourage sporting clubs to deliver a range of programs, services and events, and residents of all ages and abilities to participate in sport and recreation activities.
