Ontario Soccer would like to congratulate the 25 community Clubs that have been selected for Canada Soccer's groundbreaking Free Kicks grant program. This initiative, generously funded by Sport Canada, aims to break down barriers for newcomers to the country and foster inclusion within organized soccer through Club-hosted Try It Events. Each Club will receive a $1000 grant to help organize and execute these programs. Only 100 Clubs were chosen for this opportunity, with Ontario-based organizations making up more than a quarter of successful applications.
The selected Clubs in our province will play a pivotal role in driving positive change within the soccer landscape, ensuring that the Beautiful Game is accessible to everyone, regardless of background or experience.
