Athlete Assistance Program is a program of financial assistance provided by the Saskatchewan Soccer Association (SSA). The goal of the AAP is to provide identified high performance soccer players with financial support to assist in their continued development and ensure high performance programming is as accessible as possible to talented and dedicated athletes with financial barriers to participation. The intent of the AAP is to provide support to athletes in the Training to Train and Training to Compete stages of Long Term Player Development (LTPD) Model within the SSA High Performance Stream, who are participating in High Performance Stream competitions such as the High Performance Showcase League, Multi-Sport Games, or training in the SSA Regiional Excel Centre, or a SSA-sanctioned High Performance Training Centre (HPTC's), or Dedicated Player Programs (DPP's).
