The Ontario Sport Network (OSN) is launching a comprehensive plan for referee and official recruitment and retention, including a province-wide promotional and funding initiative. The Officials Bursary Program is available to many sports across the province, putting officials in the spotlight!
Through the Officials' Bursary Program, individuals can receive funding of up to a maximum of $500 per official. Individuals can use the funding to cover eligible course/clinic registration fees, and supplies (e.g., sport technical books, equipment, and uniform costs.) The program is now closed.
To learn more or apply, please visit the OSN website.
