Welcome to our KiwiSport newsletter March 2019
In this newsletter you will see our KiwiSport Funding Round is now Open! Also see how you can apply; meet our new KiwiSport Advisor, Jamie Leith; and see who the successful applicants were from the last funding round held in November 2018. We look forward to seeing the fantastic impact these programmes will have on young people participating in quality sporting opportunities across the greater Wellington region.

KiwiSport Funding Round now open!

KiwiSport is a government funded initiative administered here at Sport Wellington on behalf of Sport New Zealand with the aim to engage school-aged children in quality sporting opportunities.  

We are pleased to invite applications for our next funding round.  
If you have a project with a regional focus, that provides new (or expands existing) participation opportunities for school-aged children, which requires funding to get off the ground, please send in your application! Funding is only available until September 2020. This funding round closes on Sunday, 28th April 2019.

If you would like to arrange a meeting regarding a potential KiwiSport application please email: kiwisport@sportwellington.org.nz.

Welcoming Jamie Leith
Jamie Leith started at Sport Wellington as our part-time KiwiSport Advisor in March. He is also currently in a coordinator role with Kelly Sports after recently returning from a working holiday in London, where he spent time working in two Special Educational Needs schools.  

Jamie has had previous experience of working with Regional Sport Trusts through his work with Sport Otago. This experience came whilst completing his Physical Education degree at the University of Otago, where he majored in ‘Exercise Sport Science’ and ‘Exercise Prescription’. We are excited to have Jamie on board.
