Sponsorship Assistance for Players

Fee Assistance

Fee Assistance is a program of financial support for residents with low income living in our community that helps individuals participate in recreational and affiliated minor sport and arts programs. How the assistance is given, qualifications and the amount of subsidy varies between programs.

KidSport Ontario

KidSport Ontario provides grant assistance to Ontario children and youth 18 years old and younger who are facing financial barriers preventing them from joining organized sport. KidSport provides funding up to $250 per child per year. Applications must be submitted 45 days prior to activity start date. Once an application has been received it will take 30 days to receive a response.

We recommend that families apply as soon as possible. Apply for KidSport assistance here.

Canadian Tire Jumpstart

Canadian Tire Jumpstart  Charities gives kids, between the ages of 4 and 18, a sporting chance. Money raised within each community stays within the community and goes directly to help kids participate in sport, dance or other organized physical activities. Jumpstart funding helps families that need a financial hand with program registration costs. Applications for Jumpstart need to be done before the fees are due, as the money goes directly to the sports association. Funding is up to $300 per activity. Applicants can also apply for equipment assistance up to $150 to help purchase goods such as cleats, girdles, etc.

Applications can take up to six weeks to process, we recommend that families apply early. For more info and to apply.
