1 in 8 kids across B.C. cannot access sports due to financial barriers
At Athletics4Kids, we believe every child should have the chance to play. We help fund sports registration fees for low-income families.
Our grants are typically $200 per child. Eligible kids aged between 5 and 18 years living and participating in sports in B.C. We fund more than 55 different types of sports across the province. Since 2002, we have provided over 13,000 grants for kids to play amateur sports across BC. We've provided over $2.7 million in funding through our Sport4Life Grants to remove financial barriers for kids to get off the bench and into the game. With a lean and talented team, we quickly get funding into the hands of families that need it the most.

KIDS LIKE TREV
“My love of cycling was ignited in grade six when I joined the local school bike league after school program. My first time at the velodrome I knew I had found my sport! Now, six years later, I am still cycling with my team. I compete in track, road, cyclocross, and in cross country mountain biking as well. I train 15-20 hours each week, twelve months a year. My Mom works so hard so that I can participate in this sport, and we are both so grateful for the support from A4K. Having the ability to keep training during COVID, and during my final year of high school has been so important. I find that cycling keeps me focused, organized, healthy physically and mentally, connected socially, and has created goals for me to reach despite competition locally, nationally, and globally on pause for now. Thank you for your support!”
PARENTS LIKE ANITA
“They break many barriers of autism because sports motivate them and discharges all ‘crazy behaviour’ energy. Their sports are not possible without A4K’s support and the community which helps them thrive”
