\n\t\t\tABOUT\t<\/h2>\n

\n\t\t\tKidSport Kamloops\t<\/h4>\n\t

KidSport Kamloops is a local chapter of KidSport Canada. We are a not for profit organization that works to remove the financials barriers that otherwise prohibit a child from playing sports. Funds raised locally are spent locally and are distributed as grants to cover registration and\/or equipment fees associated with participation in a season of sport.<\/p>\n

Sport and physical activity provide invaluable opportunities for kids to learn teamwork, fair play and dedication. Through sport participation, kids learn how to set goals and work to achieve them – all while having fun and learning social and fundamental movement skills. Kids in sport benefit from increases in self-confidence and tend to lead happier, healthier lifestyles, now and in the future.<\/p>\n

For more information please email us at\u00a0kidsportkamloops@sportbc.com<\/a> or call 250-828-3822<\/p>\n

Our chapter accepts applications and administers grants of up to $625 per child\/year, for kids who live in Kamloops, or in one of the other communities we serve. If you live outside of Kamloops please contact the Provincial Office<\/a> to find your nearest chapter, or to get support through the Provincial Fund.<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAPPLY FOR A GRANT\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n

I have worked with KidSport Kamloops for the past 7 years, being an intake coordinator. KidSport holds a special place in my heart, as I believe all kids should have access to participate in Sport. Sport is such an important part of life and being able to see children play the sport they love because of the grants from KidSport Kamloops is special.<\/p>\n
