These grants range from $50-$250 per player for Kidsport, or are ‘based on financial need’ for Jumpstart, andare available to help families in need, to better afford registering in a recognized league, and/or to assist withthe purchasing of equipment (such as shoes and shin guards). In the case of Jumpstart, funding is alsoavailable to assist with transportation needs. This letter is intended to provide more information to familiesthat have expressed an intention to participate in the winter indoor season.

The Jumpstart application must be obtained by contacting Jumpstart at the number listed above. Where youmake your application will depend on your home address.
Families in need, that have answered ‘yes’ to the above questions, are able to apply to both programs.
IMPORTANT: If you intend to apply for a Kidsport or Jumpstart grant, you will not qualify if you havealready paid the registration fee to the club or have already purchased your equipment. These programs do notreimburse players for purchases that have already been made.
