Applications for a travel grant must be made by the organization through which the team or individual competes. 

To qualify for funding the team or individual must meet all the criteria below:

• Have achieved local, regional or higher championship status, recognized by an authorized sport or recreation body
• Be advancing to a championship or finals competition at the Western Canadian, national or international level
• Consist of North Vancouver residents or be a North Vancouver resident
• Demonstrate efforts to seek alternate funding, including self-financing, and provide a budget estimating travel and event participation costs

Team members or individuals who are not North Vancouver residents are not eligible for a grant.

Funding is available up to $200 per individual or per team player, and up to a maximum of $1,000 per team or group.

There is no guarantee of funding. Applications may result in the award of full, partial or no funding.

Approval of a grant in any one year is not to be regarded as an ongoing source of funding or support
for future years. 

Applications are accepted throughout the year on an ongoing basis.

While there is no scheduled deadline for submissions, applications must be received prior to the championship event taking place. 

In exceptional circumstances, where the interval between qualification and the subsequent championship competition is very short, applications may be received after the event has taken place.

To apply, complete the sports and recreation travel grant application form.

Please read the sports and recreation travel grants program guidelines (on pages 4 and 5 of the application form) carefully before completing the application form. If you have any questions, email travel-grants@nvrc.ca.

Make sure your application is complete, including all required attachments (such as team rosters and/or membership information for the event or from the previous year).

Applications should be submitted to travel-grants@nvrc.ca.

The sports and recreation travel grants review committee meets as applications are submitted. Recommendations from the review committee are forwarded to NVRC Commissioners for consideration at their next meeting. You can see the Commission meeting schedule at nvrc.ca/about-us/contact-us/commission-info.

If funding is approved, recipients are required to publicly recognize NVRC for the support.
