Stonewall Sports is committed to diminishing barriers of access for players to participate in the annual tournament. As such, we offer a Fee Waiver/Assistance program for members of our community experiencing financial and economic hardship. Applicants can apply for a 50% or 100% discount (including processing fees) of the sports registration fee for the National Tournament and Summit.

When can I apply?
The application will be available for a three week period once registration opens. This is to allow enough time for review of applications and provide notifications to applicants of next steps prior to the close of registration.

If the form is currently closed, please reach out to tournament@stonewallsports.org. We will review requests after the deadline on a case-by-case basis. Requests cannot be accepted once registration fully closes.

Is my information private?
Yes, the information provided in your application will only be viewed by select members of the Stonewall Sports National Tournament Committee for eligibility and financial determination. We will not request documentation of employment or finances at any point of this process. However, our goal is to meet as many needs as possible. As such, we assume good faith and expect applicants to uphold the honor system when filling out the application.

Only highly aggregated and anonymous data will be shared for budgeting purposes and is not stored for more than one calendar year.

Can the player assistance fund cover other tournament related expenses (e.g. hotel or travel)?
Unfortunately, we can only offer a 50% or 100% sports registration fee waiver with this pool of funds, at this time. We encourage you to reach out to your local leadership about any opportunities that may exist on covering other tournament costs

How long does it take to receive a decision?
Applicants should expect to receive a decision within 48 hours after application submission. If eligible, an applicant will receive next steps to claim their waiver which must be completed by the end of the sports registration period 

Please note that misuse or abuse of the player assistance fund process will result in the cancellation of your registration and may prevent you from participating in the National Tournament and Summit.
