Bursaries for athletes
Awards presentation
Identified athletes at the Espoir, Relève, Élite and Excellence levels have access to various bursary programs managed by organizations or foundations.
For the Fondation Aléo, the Fondation Nordiques and the Club de la Médaille d’Or, Triathlon Québec contacts eligible athletes and recommends candidates. This process takes place in the fall of each year and is managed through Sports Québec. The foundations then contact the selected athletes directly. Scholarships are awarded at different times of the year, depending on the type of program.

Athletes are also encouraged to consult their municipality and their regional recreation and sports unit (URLS) regarding financial support for travel to competitions or other bursaries. This can vary greatly from one region or city to another.
Athletes can also apply to their provincial or national MPs, or to their Desjardins caisse, which often have programs in place to help young athletes.
