Sports Club Development

The Shire of Wickepin is proudly participating in the Regional Every Club funding from the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. This funding has enabled the Upper Great Southern Building Sustainable Clubs Program.

The program is a partnership between the Shires of Narrogin, Wickepin, Cuballing, Wagin, Pingelly and Brookton to support and enhance the sustainability and capacity of sporting and recreation organisations. The program will be delivered by the Shire's in conjunction with Community Resource Centres and will assist local sport and recreation clubs in becoming sustainable organisations that continue to provide opportunities for locals of all ages to participate in a variety of sport and recreation.
