Coaches BC Legacy Grants
These grants are administered through viaSport.
The Coaches BC Legacy Fund was set up in 2013 with the goal of encouraging more community level coaches to become involved, to further their education, and to receive training and/or certification. As a result, four coach grant categories have been created to assist Provincial Sport Organizations, community clubs, and coach developers.
