Elite Athlete Assistance Programme

The EAAP is a formal mechanism, using a tiered system, to contribute to the preparation and continued improvement of Trinidad and Tobago’s multisport games medallists and world-ranked athletes. The Programme ensures that financial support is available to a wide range of athletes who meet the criteria and have the potential to attain world-ranking or other benchmarks in their sport.

Sport Facilities
We ensure that residents, individuals and community groups have access to quality venues for sporting and recreational activities throughout Trinidad and Tobago. The MSYA manages several sporting facilities which are used for a range of recreational purposes and sporting competitions.

Registration of Sporting Organisations
In order to access funding and technical resources from the Ministry, sport-related organizations at the community level must be registered. To register, complete the registration form with accompanying relevant documents about your organization.
