Sports in Schools is a Seattle-based nonprofit focused on expanding access to school sports for under-resourced youth across King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties in Washington. The organization accepts grant requests from middle and high schools in those counties and supports both WIAA-sanctioned and club sports. Its aim is to help students stay connected to their schools during out-of-school time through positive athletic experiences. It operates within the nonprofit sector and seeks to neutralize barriers created by shrinking athletic budgets and pay-to-play fees by increasing opportunities for student-athletes. The organization works with school districts, schools, athletic directors, and coaches to remove financial obstacles and broaden participation in school sports. In October 2025, Sports in Schools participated in a Sports General Meeting, indicating engagement with broader sports governance networks.
