Women's Regional Program
|
|
|
The High Performance Regional Development Stream includes the Foundations program for Under 16 athletes, and the Regional Super Series for Under 18 athletes. The aim of these programs is to ensure that high performance athletes are able to train in their own region, with certified coaches, throughout the year. The development training creates the foundation for the provincial excellence program.
This program is for athletes interested in continuous, committed High Performance Training during the winter and spring months. The Regional Program is the first step in provincial team athlete identification process, and is mandatory for athletes interested in representing BC.
Please note - program details will be confirmed by Sept. 30, 2010

Children's Fitness Tax Credit
Starting with the 2007 tax year, the Government of Canada allows a non-refundable tax credit based on eligible fitness expenses paid by parents to register a child in a prescribed program of physical activity. The children's fitness tax credit allows parents to claim up to $500 per year for eligible fitness expenses paid for each child who is under 16 years of age at the beginning of the year in which the expenses are paid.
Tax receipts for participation in FHBC's Development, Regional and Provincial Excellence Programs are automatically generated as part of the online payment process. If you have not received your tax receipt, please contact info@fieldhockeybc.com.
