Sport Central

Sport Central Association is a Kids' Sports charity, founded in 1991.

We collect, repair, and redistribute gently-used sports equipment (and Bikes) to kids, ages 4-17, in families experiencing financial hardship. We serve kids from Red Deer, to the northern border of Alberta, and collect equipment for over 20 different sports and recreational activities.

We have 50+ equipment donation locations (and growing) in the Greater Edmonton Area.

In addition to the youth we serve through our front door, we have a community outreach program which sends bulk shipments of equipment, locally and regionally, to communities, community leagues, and schools to help build sports related programming.

We have an equipment exchange program: as kids outgrow their equipment, they can bring it back in and exchange for the next size.

Last year’s Impact at Sport Central (2025):
- 49,011 pieces of equipment provided
- 12,706 Kids served!

In April, 2026, Sport Central relocated to a larger facility in an effort to better serve the community.

COME HELP US MAKE A DIFFERENCE: TOGETHER, WE'RE CHANGING LIVES THROUGH SPORT.
