QUEENSLAND’S Games On! initiative is delivering major upgrades to grassroots sports clubs across the state, ensuring long-term benefits from the 2032 Olympics.
As part of the $250 million investment, more than 100 community clubs have been selected for improvements to fields, courts, pitches, and clubhouses, with Beerwah Golf Club among the first to benefit.
Premier David Crisafulli said the initiative was an investment in Queensland’s sporting future.
“In the lead-up to 2032, we’ll invest in local sporting clubs so they can continue being the beating heart of Queensland communities,” he said.
“Our next generation of Olympians and Paralympians rely on grassroots clubs to hone their talents, and with Games On! they have every chance of reaching their potential.”
Minister for Sport Tim Mander said the program would have a statewide impact on a range of Queensland grassroots clubs.
More clubs will be announced by the state government as the program progresses.
