KidSport will also support kids who wish to participate in after-school sports programs in general.  If MSS or the middle schools are running a basketball team or volleyball team, etc. and there are kids who would like to participate but can't because they can't afford the team fees, Kidsport will cover that for those underprivileged kids.
