Solution

The correct option is A Deny
'Deprive' means to prevent (a person or place) from having or using something.
"the city was deprived of its water supplies"
In this context, deprive means to deny. Thus, I hope that club does not deprive or deny poor children of the opportunity to participate in sports. Hence, option A is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the appropriate meaning of the underlined word as per the context.
