Description & Services
| Information |  The Nova Scotia Amateur Sport Fund (hereafter the Sport Fund) started approximately 20 years ago as a means to raise money in order to support amateur sport in Nova Scotia. At that time, the fund was one of the few existing supports for sport programs, and provided funding assistance for many elements of the sport system, including athletes, coaches, officials, and provincial and community sport organizations. Over time, as additional funding programs were put in place, the fund evolved to focus on community sport organization support. The goal of the fund has been to support quality, sustainable programming, either by providing funds to help organizations create new programs, or expand and/or improve current programs in order to provide more opportunities for Nova Scotians to take part in sport.Today, we are happy to have a number of partners that have come together to support the growth of amateur sport in Nova Scotia. Applicants must fit into one of the following groups: - Local sport clubs and community sport organizations who are members in good standing of a Provincial Sport Organization (PSO). - Community sport organizations incorporated as a “not for profit” society under the Societies Act of Nova Scotia. - Municipalities/communities (including villages and first nation communities). Applicants must either be a member in good standing of a Provincial Sport Organization OR currently registered with active status within the Nova Scotia Registry of Joint Stocks. All applicants must be located and delivering sport within Nova Scotia. We do not fund schools/educational institutions or organizations located outside of Nova Scotia. The Sport Fund has six allocation periods: April 15th, June 15th, August 15, October 15th, December 15th, February 15th. |
