Edinburgh Triathletes Development Fund

Written by Fosowska Monday, 03 May 2010 22:52

You will be aware that in the last two years, the Committee has given £100 to athletes who represent GB at world and European duathlon and triathlon championships. The club has decided to make a change to this scheme to ensure that as many athletes as possible can benefit from club funding. In addition, the Committee aims to reward those who volunteer for club activities. Therefore, the following will apply:

- Athletes representing GB at world and European duathlon and triathlon championships will have their membership refunded. Proof of competing at this level will be required.

- Coaches will continue to have training fees paid (as long as a commitment to coach is given) and enjoy subsidised professional development (coaches should continue to contact the committee in advance of any courses etc to apply for funding).

- Marshals at races will continue to receive excellent goody bags.

- Committee members (main committee and race committees) will receive 20% discount on club kit.

A new 'development fund' will be created which the Committee will administer. This will allow all members to apply for funding for amounts up to £100. The criteria for the fund are:

- Funding must be related to triathlon or duathlon or related multisport;

- The activity funded must have demonstrable benefit for the individual and the club;

- Proof of expenditure will be required.

If you are interested in applying for the development fund, please e-mail Francesca ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) to allow the Committee to discuss.

Volunteering

Triathlon clubs and events can only survive with volunteers.  TriathlonScotland are trying to increase the number of volunteers in the sport and as part of this are surveying to find out how many active volunteers there are and what skills they have.

If you have five minutes, please complete the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NWCK8BR

In addition, the BTF are currently recruiting volunteers for the ITU European Cup race at the the 2014 Commonwealth venue, Strathclyde Park on 23 May.   Clubs members who volunteer for this event, will see a donation made to their club funds following the event.

For further information on the event and volunteering opportunities, please see www.strathclydeparktriathlon.com
