National governing body (NGB)
SportsAid supports freestyle snowboard disciplines. Snowsport England selects athletes competing in Olympic disciplines and aged between 12-years-old and 18-years-old and who are members of the Home Nations Academy or National Academy for Park & Pipe. Athletes are selected by coaches alongside the Freestyle and Snowboard Committee.
The nomination process
SportsAid only supports unfunded athletes who are nominated by their sport's national governing body. This ensures the right athletes get the right help at the right time - enhancing the sports' talent development programmes rather than duplicating them. Nominations take place every autumn.
You should contact your sport about whether you meet the criteria for the next round of SportsAid awards. Meeting the nomination criteria does not necessarily guarantee a SportsAid award because the charity can only distribute what it has fundraised.
