T.I.P. cards and scholarships are handed out by our program leaders and coordinators to athletes who we identify as top finishers. The program was designed to offer to promising young athletes the opportunity to explore track and field through our Youth Program or our Foundation Program. These scholarships are handed out at elementary school cross country meets in the fall and at track and field meets in the spring time. Over the past 10 years, hundreds of athletes have taken advantage of this opportunity.

T.I.P. Scholarships:

These scholarships are given at the Eastern Ontario Elementary Schools Cross Country Championships. It is good for one free seasonal session (Fall, Winter I, Winter II, Spring I, Spring II, or Summer) in the Youth or Foundation programs.

These scholarships cannot be applied to the Youth Summer Camp, for one week of camp.

T.I.P. Cards:

TIP cards are awarded at elementary school board cross country meets in the fall and track & field meets in the spring/summer. Athletes are entitled to 2 free weeks in our Youth or Foundation programs.  They can attend once or twice a week over the two week period.

Athletes will need to register online for the full program, then pay a lower fee to reflect the two free weeks of programming. Please email  info@ottawalions.com if you will be choosing this option to receive the correct pricing.

The T.I.P card cannot be applied to the Youth Summer Camp.

T.I.P. Limitations

Athletes who have benefited from a previous T.I.P. scholarship are not eligible for a T.I.P. scholarship.

Athletes who have previously been in an Ottawa Lions Track and Field Youth or Foundation programs can benefit from the T.I.P. card, but must register for a complete session and pay for the session at the lower registration fees.
