The Red Deer Games Foundation is now accepting applications for financial assistance from high-performing, dedicated Red Deer and area athletes.

The foundation provides financial assistance to individuals demonstrating a high level of ability and strong devotion to their sport. These athletes have achieved competence at the international, national, provincial or regional level.

Guidelines and criteria for the grant program are available at the Alberta Sport Development Centre or online at www.asdccentral.ca.

The program has contributed over $185,000 to deserving athletes since it began in 1975.

Grants can be used by elite athletes to help offset the costs of training and equipment as they continue to pursue their training and competition programs. The athletes represent a variety of sports recognized by Provincial Sport Associations within Alberta.

The deadline for applications is June 7.
