Home Page

1. On the home page, identify and click on the CLICK HERE that comes after the sentence To apply for Sport and Recreation.
  

 

2. You can also choose your language of choice by clicking on the scroll down menu on the top right of your screen

     

Account login/Account creation

3. Once on the second page, you have 2 options:

a. Login with your already existing account
b. Register a new user account using the register here button.

 

For organizations who do not already have an account on SmartSimple, you will need to click on the register here button.

4. On the following page, you will want to select the last option titled Sport and Recreation Regional Organization.

That will lead you to the next page titled Regional Organization Information. This is a new page that requires organizations to not only create a profile for their organization, but also allows organizations to have multiple user accounts associated to it. That means that the treasurer, the technical director, and the president of your organization can now all have a separate account that is linked to your organization’s account, allowing them to submit applications, fill our reports, see updates on the status of a current application, and much more.

The first step is then to create your organization’s profile. To do so, type your organization’s name in the Organization Name search box.

 

If your organization’s name appears while looking up your organization in the search box, great! That means that you only need to create a user account to link it to. To do so, fill out all the contact information present on the page.

     

Creation of organization profile

If your organization’s name does not appear after looking it up in the search box, that means that you must create both your organization’s profile, as well as your user account. To do so, click on the click here to add a new organization sentence


 

Once clicked, the next page will prompt you to create your organization’s profile as well as your user’s account that will be linked to that organization (under Contact Information).

Once completed, click the Submit button at the bottom.

 

 

Activation of user account

To activate your user account, you will need to go to your email’s inbox and search for an activation email from [email protected] . The message will guide you through the process of activating your user account by creating a new password for it.

     

Grant Application

Once that is all done, sign into your user account. This will lead you to your dashboard.

To start a new Regional Grant Application, you will need to click on the Funding Opportunities button on your dashboard.

 

 

Once you are in the Funding Opportunities, your will see the 4 grant programs offered. To review the guidelines of each grant, do so by clicking on the right-hand side button titled Sport & Rec PDF of the program that you wish to apply for.

Once you are ready to apply, you can do so by clicking on the Apply Now button.
