Travel Grants Application

ILCAWA assists members with travel grants each calendar year for competing at international ILCA World Championship sailing events. Applications must be made on the attached form below before attending the event and before any advertised deadline by ILCAWA inviting applications for that calendar year.

Applicant Criteria:

• Competed in the ILCAWA State Championships in the previous season.

• Competed at the majority of local WA sailing events in the previous season. (e.g. Youth Sail and the State Youth Championships)

• Held volunteer positions on the ILCAWA committee or their home club committee in the previous season.

         OR

• The sailor or their direct family have volunteered at ILCAWA level or club level in an official or non official capacity in the previous season on a consistent basis e.g. race day duties, volunteer coaching and other approved tasks assisting the laser class association.

The emphasis is on what has been done in the previous season. As such if a sailor can meet the above criteria on a year to year basis then ILCAWA will be happy to support this individual each year they apply provided there are sufficient funds. Up to $600 is available in a single travel grant request however the actual amount is dependent on the number of applications and the budget is set by ILCAWA.

Successful applicants will be paid after attending the World Championship and after providing a short report with some photos or video to be published by ILCAWA.
