Bailliefields Community Hub could win £3000 Aldi sports fund top prize
Low cost supermarket Aldi is calling on sports clubs in Central Scotland, such as Bailliefields in Brightons, to apply for a share of a £50,000 fund.
Now in its 11th year Aldi Scotland’s Scottish Sport Fund initiative has to date awarded over £500,000 to more than 650 grassroot clubs across the country.
The grant provides local groups with the chance buying essential kit and improving local facilities that can benefit the community.
Last year’s recipients included Stirling County Rugby Football Club and Falkirk’s Bailliefields Community Hub.
This year’s three top shortlisted regional clubs will be chosen by an Aldi Scotland judging panel before going to public vote on social media.
The winning club will receive £3000, with the two runners-up each being awarded £1250.
Sandy Mitchell, regional managing director at Aldi Scotland, said: “Over the past decade, we have seen the real impact this funding has on clubs and communities across Scotland. Through the Scottish Sports Fund, Aldi has helped clubs invest in the equipment, resources and spaces they need to grow and succeed.
“In what is a monumental year for sport globally, we are proud to continue playing our part in supporting sports clubs here in Scotland and remain committed to making sport more accessible nationwide. The response each year is incredibly positive and we look forward to working with even more clubs in 2026. I encourage clubs in Central Scotland to apply and take advantage of this opportunity.”
Clubs have until Sunday, May 10 to fill out an application.
