Sports Club Grants 2024-25
University Sports Clubs who register with the Sports Service are able to apply for grant funding based on criteria recommended by the Cambridge University Student Sport Advisory Group (CUSSAG). Applications are assessed by Sports Service professional staff with final sign off by the Sports Committee.
Due to the increase in Sport Clubs registering with the Sport Service and a result of consultation with the Cambridge University Student Sports Advisory Group in 2023-24, there has been a change to the process of the grant timeline to University Sports Clubs:
- Two grant windows will operate this year with different application, review, and sign off deadlines
- Clubs have been allocated into different phases, should a club wish to move to an alternative window they can request to do so by emailing Grants@sport.cam.ac.uk
- All clubs can begin grant applications from Monday 11th March 2024
- The Sports Club Grant Window can be found below
For 2024-25, the Sports Club grant and resource application process shall once again take place via the University of Cambridge Sport Moodle course page: www.vle.cam.ac.uk. The electronic application form can be found under the ‘Grant and Resource Application’ section, and you are encouraged to save your application regularly when completing so as to avoid losing any work.
If you require access to Moodle to complete your application, or need technical assistance, please contact registraion@sport.cam.ac.uk
