The Department of Labrador Affairs is increasing financial assistance to Labrador-based school sports teams, and Labrador athletes who qualify for provincial teams to help with travel costs.
Minister of Labrador Affairs Lisa Dempster says they’ve also increased funding to School Sports NL for the introduction of a variety of Indigenous games into the school sport curriculum.
She says the boost in funding is expanding the opportunities of student athletes in Labrador, while laying the groundwork for the development of Indigenous themed games
