May is KidSport Month across Saskatchewan, as proclaimed by the Government of Saskatchewan Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport, Laura Ross.

Proceeds from fundraising events during KidSport Month support children and youth from families facing financial obstacles allowing them to participate in our top funded sports including hockey, soccer, gymnastics, basketball and football as well as others. The 41 local KidSport chapters across the province will host a variety of fundraising events and activities to celebrate KidSport Month in their communities.

“We’re grateful for the continued support of our partners, sponsors, donors and volunteers who help us to eliminate the financial barriers associated with participation in organized sport,” said Jerry Shoemaker, Provincial KidSport Committee Chair. “By giving kids the chance to experience the power of sport, we are providing them with the opportunities to learn skills and lessons that can help them throughout their lives.”
