The Centre for Sport Capacity is a hub for sport management research, student experiential learning, and practical support to sport organizations in Niagara Region and across Canada.

  5. Community Sport Report Card:Why do it? The purpose of the report card is to gather basic information on the status of community sport organizations in order to help track the health of community sport over time. • Approximately 75% of Canadian youth take part in organized sport. • Sport happens in over 30,000 Canadian sport organizations, most at community level. • Sport is also the largest voluntary activity in Canada with over four million volunteers. How healthy are Ontario’s community sport clubs and leagues?
