BC Athlete Assistance Program
The BC Athlete Assistance Program (BC AAP) is an athlete-centered program of financial assistance funded by the Province of British Columbia and administered by 2010 Legacies Now. The program seeks to recognize high performance athletes who are participating in programs offered through a provincial sport organization or post secondary institution and competing in recognized national or international competitions to relieve some of the pressures associated with training and competition needs.
Each year the Provincial Government allocates a certain amount of BC AAP funding to each Provincial Sport Organization (PSO). Along with the funding are guidelines regarding minimum funding criteria that the PSO must follow when allocating funds to the athletes. In addition to these guidelines, the PSO is responsible for forming a Selection Committee that establishes criteria to further select athletes for the program. Once the athletes are selected, the funds are distributed. The BC AAP program seeks to "relieve some of the pressures associated with training and competition needs when participating in national and international sport."
