Athlete Hardship Bursary Award
From time to time families of athletes experience financial strains and pressures that may impact an athlete’s ability to participate in important sport development events and activities. The Athlete Hardship Bursary is a confidential bursary award provided to athletes, whose families have a demonstrated financial need, and are unable to cover the costs of sport development activities outside of the everyday training. Examples of activities that this bursary may support include: attendance to National Championships, clinics, training camps, etc.
A maximum of $1000.00 per athlete per year may be allocated. Up to $4000.00 per season may be available, pending available funding.
Canadian Sport Institute Pacific and a number of our partners provide a variety of ways in which athletes can receive financial assistance.
These grants and bursaries support the competitive needs of amateur athletes in British Columbia
