Funding for Clubs and Teams
The Sport and Recreation Branch does not
provide funding directly to individual
athletes/clubs & teams.
Provincial government funding for sport is
generally targeted to province-wide sport and
multi-sport organizations.
2010 Legacies Now
is contracted to allocate government funding for
sport and physical activity organizations and
initiatives.
Provincial Sport Organizations (such as
Basketball BC and Soccer BC), for example, are
funded through 2010 Legacies Now’s Core and Project
Funding Program administered by Sport BC.
Community clubs that are members of Provincial
Sport Organizations are supported through the
services provided by those organizations – programs
such as overseeing provincial championships,
training camps and clinics for coaches and athletes,
providing sanctioning and insurance, and
newsletters.
Community clubs seeking funding may be eligible
for gaming revenues (for example, by running bingos
and other licensed events and/or direct access to
gaming revenues). For more information or to apply
go to
the
Gaming Policy and Enforcement Branch (Ministry of Public Safety &
Solicitor General).
