Stay In Sport Summer 2013 all winners!
Since launching in 2012, the Foundation's Stay in Sport program has assisted 38 young athletes from across the region to remain engaged in sport - helping with expenses such as subs and uniforms.
The second round assisted 10 young athletes from South Coast Little Athletics and 6 junior players from Encounter Bay Cricket Club by providing $50 'vouchers' to assist with compulsory fees associated with thier sport.

This has helped a family in financial difficulty who could not afford their subscriptions or the purchase a uniform this season. Without the co-contribution of the club and the Fleurieu Community Foundation Stay In Sport grant the family would have dropped out.
