BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW
The Hockey Canada Foundation Assist Fund will provide up to $500 per player in registration fee subsidies to approved applicants who are registered with a Hockey Canada-sanctioned association. For the 2026-27 season, the Assist Fund commits to providing $1.3 million in assists to kids across Canada to help them access hockey.
The Assist Fund will be open to receive applications starting August 1, 2026, and will remain opened until $1.3 million of assists have been accepted. Only applications that are submitted with sufficient documentation will be processed and all applications will be assessed on a first come, first served basis. Once this limit has been reached, the Assist Fund application portal will be closed, and no further applications will be accepted for the remainder of the season. In addition, any applications which were submitted but were not assessed prior to the limit being reached will not be approved, regardless of whether they would have otherwise met HCF’s eligibility criteria.
ELIGIBILITY
To apply for an assist, you must be currently registered with a Hockey Canada sanctioned Minor Hockey Association for the 2026-27 season. Please contact your Minor Hockey Association to register prior to applying.
Financial eligibility for the Assist Fund is based on the Low Income Cut-Off (LICO) guidelines from Statistics Canada, which are an integral part of our application process. CLICK HERE for more information on the subject.
