[Coach Workshop] Revelation of Futsal World Cup: Futsal's press & anti-press (2 Points)  

The One-off Grant to Registered Sports Coaches scheme, relaunched under the Anti-epidemic Fund, will be open for application from January 20 (Thursday). The scheme will provide a one-off grant of $5,000 for each eligible registered sports coach.

Due to the deteriorating COVID-19 epidemic situation in early January, the Government further tightened up the social distancing measures. LCSD facilities were temporarily closed again starting from January 7. As a result, many sports training activities that relied on the provision of LCSD facilities were suspended again. The one-off grant scheme aims to further provide timely financial relief to eligible registered sports coaches.

The application form and guidelines of the scheme will be available from the LCSD website ( www.lcsd.gov.hk ) and the 18 District Leisure Services Offices of the LCSD from January 20. Please call 2601 7473 for enquiries.
