We believe that everyone who wants to play should be able to play, no matter their financial circumstance so we encourage our families to reach out to the programs that offer financial assistance for sport.

There are two prominent national programs that provide direct funding for children and youth to participate in sport: KidSport and JumpStart. Information about these programs is below.

Please do not send your original application to us. The original application must go to the organization you are applying to.

If you are applying for financial assistance, you apply directly to these organizations and you must also send a copy of your application to the AMFA by email to registrar@amfa.ca.

For all other questions regarding financial assistance, please contact our Registrar Wendy Lanphear at wendy.lanphear@amfa.ca or 604-309-6361.

KidSport

KidSport provides support to children in order to remove financial barriers that prevent them from playing organized sport. For information and to apply please go here: https://kidsportcanada.ca/british-columbia/abbotsford/

Jumpstart

Canadian Tire Jumpstart is dedicated to removing barriers, so children can participate in organized sport and recreation. For information and to apply, please go here: https://jumpstart.canadiantire.ca/pages/individual-child-grants

We also have a small fund available for players that would be unable to play due to financial hardship, thanks to the generous donations of some of our families. If you do not qualify for any of the above options, please email president@amfa.ca.
