About KidSport

Through the generosity and enthusiasm of everyone involved, we were able to raise over $39,000 for KidSport Calgary. This incredible local grassroots sports charity is dedicated to ensuring that no child is left on the sidelines. KidSport provides registration fee assistance and no-cost equipment to low-income families, making it possible for kids to participate in sports.

The need for KidSport’s services has grown rapidly, with over 6,000 kids receiving support and $2 million distributed in registration fee assistance in Calgary and the surrounding area. The funds raised during our tournament will play a critical role in continuing this support through 2024. Specifically, the $39,000 will help cover registration fees for over 115 kids, giving them a chance to engage in sports, develop their skills, and enjoy the benefits of an active lifestyle.

We are incredibly proud of the community effort that made this event a success. A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who participated, donated, and contributed to making a difference in the lives of so many children. Together, we are helping create opportunities for kids to thrive both on and off the field.
