FSF Major and Regional Grant Program
The Florida Sports Foundation’s Major
and Regional Grant Programs were established in 1996 to assist
communities and host organizations in attracting sports events,
which generate significant out-of-state economic impact for the
state of Florida.
Events that will be considered for grant funding include amateur or
professional athletic events, or other categories approved by the
Foundation’s Board of Directors. The applicant must demonstrate
that “but for” the grant award, the event will not be successful.
When awarding grants, the Foundation places emphasis on out-of-state
economic impact, community support and image value to the state.
Mature events currently based in Florida are not eligible for the
grant program unless proof can be provided that it was secured
through a bid. Grant applications are only accepted through a
regional Sports Commission in the State of Florida.
All Grant applications will be reviewed quarterly, and application
deadlines are as follows:
January 10
for final recommendation at the April Board of Directors meeting.
Events must be
held after April 1 of the same year.
April 10
for final recommendation at June Board of Directors meeting. Events
must be held
after July 1 of the same year.
July 10
for final recommendation at the September Board of Directors
meeting. Events must
be held after October 1 of the same year.
October 10
for final recommendation at the December Board of Directors
meeting. Events
must be held after January 1 of the following year.
*GRANT PROGRAM CHANGES (as of June 19, 2006): The regional
Sports Commission in
the area where your event is held must submit all applications.
If your area does not
have a regional sports commission, please call the Florida Sports
Foundation Regional
Grant Program coordinator to determine appropriate action.
