BC Sport Participation Program

January 1, 2019

BC Sport Participation Program (BCSPP), funded $244,000 in 2018/19 equally by the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia. This new funding will also improve sport opportunities for Indigenous populations and support projects that strengthen physical literacy and the participation of children and youth in sport as well as strengthen the capacity and leadership of Indigenous sport organizations and to increase culturally relevant sport programming for Indigenous children and youth, such as supporting athletes from British Columbia training for the North American Indigenous Games.
