Grant Partnerships
Empowering Grassroots Sports for Girls
The Simply Sport Grant Partnerships is a flagship initiative committed to increasing girls’ participation in sports at the grassroots level. Designed to partner and support academies, NGOs, clubs, and organisations working in sports, the program addresses deep-rooted challenges such as economic constraints, societal stigma, limited access to role models, and the lack of structured opportunities for girls in sports.
Over the past four years, we have collaborated with 13 partners as part of our initiative. This year, five new partners will join us through our Grant Partnerships, supporting our flagship initiative.
Through strategic partnerships, the program provides holistic support across key areas:
Tournament & Coaching Suppor
Organising regular leagues for girls to gain match experience and building coach capacity through gender-sensitive, development-focused training.
Access to Resources & Equipment
Providing quality gear and essential academic, career, and developmental tools to support athletes holistically.
Infrastructure & Ecosystem Development
Creating safe, accessible training spaces and strengthening local sports ecosystems through mentorship and capacity building.
Health & High-Performance Programs
Promoting adolescent and female athlete wellness through fitness, nutrition, recovery, mental health, and high-performance camps.
By partnering with committed grassroots organisations, the Simply Sport Grant Partnerships initiative aims to:
-
Expand access to sports for girls in rural and underserved areas
-
Reduce dropout rates by creating engaging and inclusive programs
-
Build a strong foundation for future female athletes and leaders
-
Promote sustainability in grassroots sports through capacity and community-driven support
This program is not just a funding mechanism—it’s a powerful platform to drive change, open doors, and build a more inclusive future for girls in sports.
