If coaches manage multiple teams/sports, they only need to complete this process once to be covered for all. One registration/background check covers all sports, excluding soccer, for which additional steps are required.

DICK’S Sporting Goods and The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation believe in the transformative power of sport to change lives. But not all kids have access to sport because of the cost of registration fees. That is why we’ve partnered with Every Kid Sports, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, to help provide registration fee support to families that qualify.*
Parents or guardians can apply for assistance at SportsMatter.org/s/registration-fees-and-equipment or by clicking on the link above. Qualifying families can apply for up to $150, once per season (Fall, Winter, Spring) per child, to cover youth sports registration fees. This is first come first served until funds are gone. So please apply ASAP!
The Lawton Youth Athletics Scholarship Fund helps support youth participants in the Lawton, Oklahoma community (18 & under) who wish to be involved in athletics programming but don't have financial access. Candidates may be eligible for up to 100% scholarship towards the registration cost for a program/activity of their choosing.
