KID SPORT™ FUNDING

Both Jump and Jive and Drop in Gymnastics are eligible for KidSport™ Funding

At KidSport™, they believe that no child should be left on the sidelines. They offer an opportunity for children to participate in the sport of their choice, in their own community, by providing grants to cover the registration fees of a season of organized sport, for families in financial need.

All applications are kept strictly confidential, and most children do not know that they have received funding.

You can get your application on line at www.sport.bc.ca or come in to our office and we have copies here! Call 362-2327 for more information.
