ClubsNSW has been the principal partner of the NSW Institute of Sport (NSWIS) since 1995, with our annual contribution of $1 million helping to ensure that the NSWIS remains one of Australia's leading sporting institutes. Through this affiliation, ClubsNSW has contributed over $12 million to elite sport in NSW.
In addition to this support, individual clubs around NSW have also sponsored the Institute's sport programs. The Bankstown District Sports Club is a long time supporter of the hugely successful NSWIS cycling program. The Mingara Recreation Centre is located on the Central Coast and is an NSWIS Central High Performance Centre and Bexley Golf Club is a partner of the NSWIS Golf Program.
ClubsNSW recently announced that it has extended its support of the Institute until the end of 2012 giving our state's elite athletes financial certainty through the Beijing and London Olympic Games.
A cheque presentation for $5 million for the next five years of support took place during the NSW Institute of Sport Awards Dinner on November 29, 2007. The cheque was handed over by ClubsNSW Chairman Peter Newell OAM to NSWIS Chief Executive Officer Charles Turner.
