Our national team programs are funded through the Government of Canada, with identified national team athletes fortunate enough to receive APP Athlete Carding from Sport Canada. In addition, we are in the fortunate position to have full time coaches leading our women’s and men’s national team programs. These coaching positions are funded in part by Sport Canada Support to Sport funding. Field Hockey Canada’s national team athletes also benefit from COC support to attend the Olympic qualification events with the majority of the costs for this years Pan American Games covered by the COC.
