The Baltimore Ravens announced Tuesday that applications are now open for the 2026 Ravens Youth Sports Grant, continuing the organization's longstanding commitment to strengthening youth athletics across the community. Applications will be accepted from March 3 through April 11, 2026.
The grant program supports youth and high school sports programs across a wide range of disciplines. In 2025, 28 youth sports programs throughout Maryland were awarded grants, which provided essential equipment, apparel and safety resources to young athletes.
A Growing Impact Across Maryland
Over the past 15 years, the Ravens Youth Sports Grant has delivered a measurable and lasting statewide impact, supporting over 9,500 youth athletes, benefiting 2,730 teams and positively impacting 422 youth sports programs. What began as a football-focused initiative has evolved into a comprehensive investment in youth sports, expanding access to quality athletic resources for athletes across multiple sports.
With continued support from Under Armour, the initiative offers multiple equipment and apparel packages designed to serve athletes in tackle football, flag football and other youth athletic programs.
Eligible organizations may apply for apparel packages to outfit their athletes, sport-specific equipment such as Guardian Caps and flag football belts, medical devices that support athlete health and safety, and more. These grant packages reinforce the organization's commitment to health, safety and resources, ensuring young athletes have the necessary tools to compete at the highest level.
Applications for the 2026 Ravens Youth Sports Grant can be submitted at www.BaltimoreRavens.com/SportsGrants until April 11, 2026.
