Funding Proposal
I would like to put forward a proposal of funding to assist Sussex based gymnasts who are involved in the high performance system.
Proposal
Sussex based clubs are now seeing more members achieving places on to home nation or national squads. Gymnasts who are members of these squads have to self fund many of the aspects involved with being a members of these squads. I am proposing that we could have a set amount of money (a figure of £5000 has been given by the treasurer as a figure to work with) agreed by the Sussex Committee to be equally shared amongst gymnasts who are involved in the high performance system for any discipline.
Gymnasts who are members of a home nation or national squad would be eligible to claim the amount to assist with funding of travel, kit, squad camps or competition expenses. They would be required to provide evidence of expenditure which they can then claim back. These gymnasts could apply for this funding if they are either a member of a squad, or if a discipline does not run a squad are selected to represent their home nation or national team at an international level (not representing their country as part of their club team).
I hope you will all consider this and if you have any questions please contact me
