Build stronger communities by growing the game of hockey in Oil Country.

what is the KidSport Oil Country Hockey Assist Program?

Thanks to the support of the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation, through their Every Kid Deserves a Shot initiative presented by Rogers, we’re excited to launch the FOURTH season of the KidSport Oil Country Hockey Assist Program (HAP). HAP is dedicated to increasing access to youth hockey across Oil Country.

Approved applicants are eligible to receive up to $750 per player for their registration fees, as well as access to no-cost equipment from Sport Central.

IT'S BACK!

 

In three seasons of the HAP program, we have funded over 4,776  kids into hockey and have provided over 2,487 kids with hockey equipment for their season! We are incredibly excited to grow that number for the 2025/26 hockey season!

How do I apply?

In order to apply for the HAP program,  first register with your local hockey association.

After registering, apply for KidSport funding through our application process.
