A scheme has been launched under the second round of the Anti-epidemic Fund to provide a one-off grant of $7,500 to each eligible registered sports coach, the Leisure & Cultural Services Department (LCSD) announced today.

Sports coaches registered under National Sports Associations or recognised sports organisations who had provided coaching services from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020 are eligible to apply.

Applications should be submitted to the LCSD's Sports Funding Office by June 15. The grant will be disbursed about one month after receipt of the completed application form and supporting documents.

The application form and guidelines can be downloaded from the LCSD website or collected at its 18 District Leisure Services Offices.
