SDRCC grant to fund research project aiming to reshape youth sport programming

Simon Darnell, an associate professor at the University of Toronto Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education (KPE), has been awarded an Abuse-Free Sport Research Grant by the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada (SRDCC).

The grant, valued at close to $90,000 CAD, will fund a project with MLSE Foundation to evaluate collaborative best practices in fostering a  positive, safe and brave culture for youth in sport over the next three  years.

“This new project extends the scope and impact of the Change the Game research initiative – Canada’s largest youth sport study to date, and an important source of data on youth sport access, engagement and equity,” says Darnell.
