Sport discovery event for youth aged 6 – 17 years old.
All Sport One Day is a fantastic, FREE sport discovery event designed specifically for children and youth ages 6 to 17. It offers a unique opportunity for young participants to try out a new sport or physical activity in a fun and supportive environment.
Whether your child is curious about learning a new skill or simply eager to get active, this event is an excellent way to introduce them to the world of sports without any financial commitment. By participating, kids can explore different sports, discover their interests, and potentially find a new passion, all while making new friends and staying active.

How can I cancel my child’s full activity schedule?
If you want to cancel ONLY ONE ticket in a registration, email events@sportcalgary.ca with the following information:
Yes, but online pre-registration is strongly recommended to guarantee your child(ren)’s spot and avoid disappointment.
Spaces are likely to be available on the event day, so if you were unable to register online you are welcome to drop-in for sports that have spaces remaining.
Absolutely! We strongly recommend registering your child in at least two sessions to give them the opportunity to try out more than one sport. You will be unable to double book your children in sessions happening at the same time.
We reserve the right to cancel excessive registrations because we want to allow as many children as possible to try out a free sport.
ADD C) Can my child (age 6) participate in a sport with their sibling who is in a sport with a 9-12 age category?
No. Participants must register in the age category that matches their age for safety, fair play, and program design reasons.
Sport Calgary’s participation waiver is completed online through the session registration process. Drop-in can complete the waiver electronically on their phone when onsite.
Some sessions require additional waivers. Online registrants will be sent the waivers and must either complete them online in advance or bring a printed copy on event day.
Yes, this is a requirement.
In addition to seeing your child discover a new sport, you will have an opportunity to connect with the instructors and volunteers from the sport organizations to learn about potential future programming opportunities for your child.
Yes, there will be an optional online media release button you can accept or decline during the registration process.
Additionally, at our multisport sites, a wristband will also be handed out to the participants who do not wish to have their picture taken at this event.
No, All Sport One Day is not a day camp.
You are responsible for taking your child from activity to activity. All Sport One Day is an opportunity for parents to learn about new sport and connect with sport organizations in your area offering programming for children.
For our multisport hubs, we strongly recommend you arrive at least 15 minutes before the activity is scheduled to begin as these are often larger facilities and we are managing the check-in for multiple sports. Check-in is busiest at the start of the day so please arrive by 9:30AM at the latest.
This will ensure you have time to find where the activity is scheduled to take place, check-in at the registration desk or directly at the activity site.
(Please allow extra time if your activity requires specialized equipment or is in a big facility.
Some activities are only offered to specific ages, depending on the physical and the coordination skills that are needed to participate.
Ages groups have been decided in consultation with each sport provider in order to provide a better experience for the children.
Make sure you register in a session that is appropriate for the age of your child to avoid a disappointing experience.
In most cases, equipment will be provided, but you may bring your own equipment if you prefer.
The description for each session will inform you if the equipment is provided for that specific activity. Bathing suits and towels are not provided for children in water-based sport activities.
If you do not have the required equipment for a given session, you can try the following:
The Calgary Flames Sports Bank assists low-income families with equipment donations. Equipment is available on a first come, first serve, with priority given to qualified families. The quantity and sizes of available equipment change regularly. Follow the instructions at to learn more. Please apply as early in advance of your schedule as possible.
There are companies in Calgary that offer sports equipment rentals on a short-term basis, such as Sports Rent and Outlaw Sports.
Ask your family, friends, or neighbors! Just make sure it fits properly so you child is safe when playing.
Reach out to a sport organization directly to see if they have equipment you can borrow.
For most activities, running shoes and fitness clothing (t-shirt, shorts and/or sweat pants) are appropriate. A filled water bottle is a must.
For most outdoor activities, jacket, hat, sunscreen, and insect repellent are also recommended. Please dress for the weather.
Some activities may require additional equipment, which can be found in the session’s description.
The standard session length is 50-60 minutes.
This allows enough time for sport providers to provide a brief introduction and warm-up, before beginning the activity and concluding with information about how to join the sport.
On the All Sport One Day page, there will be a list of the organizations that participated in the event, with their logo and a link to their website. You can click on the organization to access information about the sport organization who provided the activity you tried at All Sport One Day.
