1 EQUIPMENT

Only specialised equipment will be considered, and only then, when the Executive deems it to be unreasonable for the Club or individual to provide it as normal ongoing material.

2 TRAVEL AND ACCOMMODATION

(a) Competitions:
(i) Voluntary Attendance – no grant will be awarded in this instance.
(ii) Selective Attendance – a grant will only be considered on the first occasion of a candidate’s selection to a specific level of performance.
(b) Coaching:
(i) Voluntary Attendance – no grant will be awarded in this instance.
(ii) Selective Attendance – a grant will only be considered when it is felt that a candidate will reach a higher level of attainment.

3 TRAINING COSTS

Applications will only be considered for specialist training courses, but not for practice. This will refer to either individual or squad training costs and should be non-recurring.

4 LEVEL OF GRANT

Where an element of accommodation is included in a total package, that element will not normally receive more than 50% contribution. Where no "accommodation" is involved, the entire course fee and travel may be considered for the full grant.

5 ATTENDANCE

All applicants, personal or Clubs may be asked to be in attendance for provision of additional information when a grant application is considered by the Grants Committee. In the event of further information being sought regarding an application, if this information is not produced prior to the next meeting of the Grants Committee, the application shall be considered to have been withdrawn. An updated financial statement, together with the last balance sheet in respect of Clubs must be made available.

6 SPONSORSHIP

Sponsorship may be considered where the Executive deem appropriate in order to promote South Ayrshire Sports Council.

7 PERIOD OF GRANT AID

Normally only one grant will be made in any financial year, that year to run 1st April/31st March.
