Grant Information

Remember the Ross & Cromarty Sports Council is here to help your club. If you have never heard of us and live in Ross-shire then you can apply for Membership of the Sports Council. The benefits are well worth the membership fees.

For more information on grant aid please download an application form and guidlines from the document library and view the terms and conditions. You will need a Constitution, Child & Vulnerable Adult Protection Policy, and a copy of your Accounts.

We have added a Grant Claim form and an Evaluation form which can be downloaded here.

Please note that all grant applications must be received by the Grants Sub Committee a minimum of one week before the Sports Council meeting. Grant application forms can be emailed to the sports council but all paper work must be sent to the Grants Convenor ALAN HUNTER, Smithy Cottage, Newton, Cromarty, IV11 8XT.

Please visit Coaching Highland's website for many useful sources of information but especially as they have a section dedicated to how clubs/coaches can apply for a Coach Education Grant. This could result in match funding!!
