Kidsport

KidSport is a national not-for-profit organization that provides financial assistance for registration fees and equipment to kids aged 18 and under. Through a confidential application process we provide grants so they can play a season of sport. Nationally, KidSport is comprised of a network of 11 provincial/territorial KidSport chapters and 166 community KidSport chapters. Since its creation in 1993, over 750,000 kids across the country have been given the chance to play sport through KidSport grants and sport introduction programming.

In 2017, KidSport provided $1.95 million in funding to 7332 children in the BC sport system.  In Badminton, KidSport distributed $600 to 2 children.

As KidSport celebrates their 25th anniversay in 2018, they are working hard to ensure they continue to meet the growing demand for KidSport.  Clubs are encouraged to support their respective KidSport chapter through fundraising opportunties like 50/50 draws, gate receipts at tournaments, having a KidSport donation option on registration forms and other creative initiatives.
