Six provincial partners and six clubs will receive a total of $54,700 in grants to support boccia development through Boccia Canada’s Provincial Development Grant Program. This is almost double the total funding distributed in 2019-20.

Boccia Canada is pleased to present the “Profiling Women in Boccia” series in the lead up to International Women’s Day on March 8. The series will profile female boccia athletes, coaches, officials, performance partners, and volunteers in a collection of videos.
