The Upper Canada District School Board says it’s the largest single investment that the board has made in sports and sports programming.
The UCDSB says it plans to invest $10.4 million in sports infrastructure updates and $1.8 million in the All-In Sports initiative.
Over the next five years, board officials say that their goal, based on funding and site feasibility, is to have all secondary school facilities meet minimum requirements for hosting regional competitions.
They also want to add three Eastern Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association-level facilities and two Ontario Federation of School Athletic Association-level facilities.
Board officials say they want to ensure that all schools and student athletes in each region of our district have proximal access to suitable competitive facilities to participate in sporting events.Â
