OSCAR
The Sports Capital Programme online system is called OSCAR (Online Sports Capital Register).
This is the only way to apply for grants under the Sports Capital Programme. OSCAR also allows registered groups to view previous grants and payments, change contact details, seek payment of a grant and otherwise communicate with the Department online.
Any organisation that wishes to use the system must first register online. This guide will lead users through the registration process. Organisations only need to register once.
