Healthier community canteens and kiosks are the focus of the $200,000 grants program.
Local sporting clubs are encouraged to apply for a grant of up to $4,000 to support healthier food and drink choices at club-run canteens and kiosk
The initiative is co-ordinated with support from the Western Australian School Canteen Association (WASCA) promoting the Fuel to Go & Play message.
Clubs and canteen managers will work closely with WASCA to reform menus and participate in training activities to promote positive nutrition.
Canteen managers and volunteers will also complete food safety and hygiene training in line with COVID-19 food service guidelines.
