Dear Commonwealth Games Hopefuls
I had a meeting with Commonwealth Games Association Council
today and have some useful update information for you, which we can discuss at
the AGM on Thursday
FUNDING / SPONSORSHIP
The Commonwealth Games Association has funding (more details
to be announced soon) but it is important to note that this funding is only available
to support Commonwealth Games Hopefuls if they do the following…
Submit their log books each quarter (See note1)
Submit a summary of their 2016 programme/results
Submit a summary of their 2017 plans
Note1 All JTC Athletes use Training Peaks so it is easy to
export from Training Peaks into Excel and submit that to Commonwealth Games
Association [administrator@cgaj.org]
with cc to TimHJRogers@hougue.com and
nick@tpscoach.com
If you do not do this you cannot be eligible for Commonwealth
Games Association funding
The funding will be ….
Level 0 – for athletes a long way from their Key Performance
Indicators £0 NIL
Level 1 – for near their Key Performance Indicators £250
Level 2 – for met their Key Performance Indicators + all
testing & meetings etc £500
Level 3 – for exceed their Key Performance Indicators + all
testing & meetings etc £1000
However you need to bid (ie put in an application) for
funding.
Applications for funding by 20th Dec will get money by 3rd January.
If you don’t bid someone else will and the money will go to someone else. This
is why it is so important that you have a coach and a plan for 2017 – as noted
in earlier email/newsletter.
Reminder…
All Commonwealth
Hopefuls will be asked to confirm if they have a coach, and if they have a
forward looking training programme from now to Gold Coast 2018. The JTC will
hold the coach + athlete responsible for attending the testing, meeting the
KPIs, and achieving the standards
required toward the necessary criteria and standards by May 2017.
COMMONWEALTH GAMES TICKETS
Friends and family tickets go on sale Q1 2017 on a
first-come, first-served and pay-up-front basis. This is a friends and family
offer, but they only 100% guaranteed way you’ll get tickets for Commonwealth
Games. Public sales (in May 2017) will be more ‘…only if your lucky…’ Maybe start
writing a note to Father Christmas about what you want in January???
ATHLETE TEAM DAY
Reminder 22 April 2017 – you will be sent an invitation via
EventBrite – may sure you accept the invitation!
Kind regards, Tim
