Kitchener SC and Kitchener TFC stand behind our belief that ‘Every Kid Plays’ and provides measures to ensure finances are not a barrier for athletes to play soccer in our Club. If you require financial assistance, please reach out to us at ar@kitchenertfc.com so we can work together to ensure your child can play.
If you are applying for financial assistance, please contact Sandra Alves at ar@kitchenertfc.com prior to registering your child for the season. If you have been denied financial assistance, we can work with you to create a payment plan that will work within your budget.
Please note that Jump Start and KidSport will only provide funding for the Indoor and Outdoor seasons and not for Camps or Development Training.
