Loisir et Sport Montérégie

What Loisir et Sport Montérégie does

Loisir et Sport Montérégie is a Quebec-registered non-profit organization (OSBL) operating as the regional leisure and sports federation for the Montérégie administrative region of Quebec, Canada. Headquartered at 2050 rue Girouard Ouest in Saint-Hyacinthe with a team of 27 employees, the organization coordinates and delivers a portfolio of recreational, outdoor, and sports programs to a member base composed of public secondary schools, municipalities, and community non-profit organizations (OSBLs). It holds a coordination mandate from the Gouvernement du Québec, functioning as the regional implementing body for provincial recreation and sports policy across all MRC territories in Montérégie, including Haute-Yamaska and Brome-Missisquoi.

The organization's core offerings include invent'air (an outdoor equipment lending and deployment service for schools, municipalities, and OSBLs), La route bleue (a regional waterway program featuring the volunteer-driven Escouade nautique for nautical safety), Fillactive (a girls' physical-activity program delivered in secondary schools), ex3 plein air en milieu scolaire (school outdoor experiences), Jeux du Québec (regional athletic games coordination), Activités clés en main (turnkey activity resources), and the Prix Dollard-Morin recognition award for amateur-sport volunteers. The organization does not develop technology products; services are executed through direct field-based program delivery and equipment logistics from its Saint-Hyacinthe point of service. Marketing and member engagement are conducted via the loisir.qc.ca website, an email newsletter, social media, the regional portal "Je clic loisir en Montérégie," and training/formation events.

The revenue model is funded primarily through provincial government grants and a mandate-based allocation from the Gouvernement du Québec, supplemented by membership fees and program-specific co-funding from partners such as the Direction de santé publique de la Montérégie (Santé Québec Montérégie-Centre) — notably through Mesure 1.4 grants of $1,500 per school for the Fillactive and "Ça bouge entre filles" programs. There is no publicly disclosed pricing, no commercial revenue stream, and no indication of venture or private-equity ownership. The organization is governed democratically on a member-based ("vie démocratique") structure.
