Red Deer Games Foundation now accepting applications for athletic grant

May 5, 2022 | 1:49 PM

The Red Deer Games Foundation is now accepting applications for financial assistance for Red Deer and area athletes.

The foundation provides financial assistance to individuals demonstrating a high level of ability and strong devotion to their sport.

Since 1975, the foundation’s Grant Program has contributed over $200,000 to deserving athletes.

The grants are awarded to individuals living in Red Deer and central Alberta who have demonstrated a high level of ability and a strong commitment to their sport. These athletes have achieved competence at the international, national, provincial, or regional level.

The grants may be used by elite athletes to help offset the costs of training and equipment as they continue to pursue their training and competition programs. The athletes represent a variety of sports recognized by Provincial Sport Associations within the province of Alberta.

The application deadline is Friday, June 3.

Information brochures and application forms outlining the guidelines and criteria of the program are available at the Alberta Sport Development Centre or online.
