Sports clubs

Welcome to the one-stop shop for sport and recreation clubs in Port Phillip.

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.
