2015 BC Baseball KidsPlay Registration Assistance Guidelines

The purpose of the BC (Minor) Baseball KidsPlay Registration Assistance Program is to do our best to ensure that no one is denied access to BC (Minor) Baseball programs due to financial restrictions. BC (Minor) Baseball has been providing youth baseball programs throughout British Columbia since 1963. 

Eligibility 
In an attempt to be thorough and fair, when determining eligibility for KidsPlay Registration Assistance, we consider the following conditions:

- Players must show a financial need for KidsPlay Registration Assistance. 
- Approved applicants are eligible to receive up to 75% of registration fees. 
- Applications must be received by April 15th 
- Applications will be reviewed in the order that they are received. 
- Incomplete applications will be returned and could cause a delay in processing. 
- First time applicants will be given preference for KidsPlay Registration Assistance. 
- If funding is not available, applicants will be notified at earliest possible time. 
- Funding is primarily for Spring Season, if funds are available we may be able to assist with Summer (All-Star) registration.

Association

In order to receive KidsPlay Registration Assistance, the association the player is applying to play in must be a member of BC Baseball.

Income Verification

- This reference should be an objective third-party, preferably a professional who is in a position to verify the player’s financial need for assistance (Such as a Social Worker, Principal, Counselor, Law Enforcement Officer, Doctor, Pastor, etc.) - If none of the above are available, we will consider a letter from a family friend/relative as long as we can confirm relationship.
