Federal Government Game On grant for sporting clubs
Your club could get up to $100,000 to slash its power bills.
Money back into players, families and facilities, not the power company.
The Government's Game On grant covers solar, batteries and energy upgrades for community sporting clubs. AR Energy helps you check eligibility, apply, and install it properly. Applications open 1 July and close 28 July 2026, 9pm AEST (or earlier if the funding pool runs out).
Free eligibility check and site assessment. No obligation. If the numbers don't stack up for your club, we'll tell you straight.

Power bills are quietly draining your club's budget.
- Night games mean lights, fridges and the bar running for hours, with nothing offsetting the cost.
- Every price rise pulls money away from players, families and facilities.
- Volunteer committees cannot just find tens of thousands for an energy upgrade.
- Keeping registration fees affordable gets harder every season.

Brilliant experience from start to finish
"An AR Energy rep came out to discuss solar and battery options, and sent through two quotes that same day. The install team arrived early, were polite, got to work immediately and left the property cleaner than when they started. I'd happily recommend AR Energy to anyone."

Happy I chose AR Energy
"From start to finish the AR team were easy to deal with and professional, and I couldn't be happier with the end result. Quick to respond to any after-sales questions too. No brainer. I couldn't recommend them any more than I have."
