When I worked as a Physio Assistant the majority of the braces were not covered. I believe the only ones that had coverage were Seniors, WCB claims or if you absolutely needed it to work in which case you could state your case to Alberta Health Care but it was still discretionary.
They are usually covered by your Employer/Group/Private Benefits plan and you will be asked to take that route first before any Alberta Health Care reimbursement since it was injured during a recreational activity and an "Accident" rather then being an eventual medical issue or an on the job injury.
