The Sport for Life Summit brings together leaders who strive to enhance quality sport and physical activity throughout Canada. By establishing an environment for knowledge sharing and idea generation through thoughtful and open dialogue, the Summit fosters connection, advances best practices and identifies opportunities for innovation. We aspire to ensure quality sport and physical activity programming, and the development of physical literacy, are equitably available to everyone.
Unity Through Sport
The 2026 Sport for Life Summits will highlight how sport and physical activity can bring people together, create shared opportunities, and set the stage for a stronger future for everyone in Canada. By bridging divides to enhance participation and performance, the Summit invites thought leaders, decision-makers, researchers, practitioners, and sport and physical activity partners to share ideas and make meaningful connections. By unifying sport and physical activity organizations at all levels of the system, we can establish developmentally appropriate, progressive, effective pathways that are safe, welcoming, inclusive, and accessible for every participant.
