KLM Financial Assistance Information
KLM is committed to providing all children the opportunity to participate in our soccer programs. We aim to create an inclusive playing environment and help eliminate financial barriers for all players.
If your child requires financial assistance in order to participate in a KLM program, team or camp, you can speak to our Grants Coordinator to discuss the options for funding through external organizations listed below.
Please note processing times for grants can take up to 2 months so applicants are encouraged to apply well in advance of the program start date to ensure your child secures a spot in a KLM program. If a family pays the registration fee upfront and later applies and receives financial assistance, KLM will reimburse the amount covered by the funding organization. Learn more about the KLM Financial Assistance Policy.
Please note that KLM no longer offers a full-year registration option. Families must apply for funding separately for each program they wish to join. For example, you can apply for Athletics For Kids funding for spring programs and Kidsport for fall/winter programs.
Any family member or guardian requiring assistance on behalf of a child is asked to contact the KLM Grants Coordinator to discuss their options in confidence.
