Applications for The Lacrosse Foundation Bursary Scheme have gone live and are now being accepted.
The Lacrosse Foundation Bursary Scheme, managed by England Lacrosse, has been introduced to provide financial assistance to athletes in the England Lacrosse Talent Pathway (Academy – U23 England) who are not able to meet the financial requirements for continued participation.
Athletes who meet the criteria will be able to apply for annual financial assistance within the following areas: subsistence; travel; equipment; training; and tour costs.
England Lacrosse’s Talent Pathway Manager, Jane Powell, is enthusiastic about the new bursary scheme saying:
“This is a good step forward to helping us make sure our Talent Pathway is accessible for all those with the potential to play senior international lacrosse. A massive thank you to The Lacrosse Foundation for their support in providing the bursary finances to make this a reality”
The Lacrosse Foundation, who work tirelessly to ensure lacrosse is a sport that can be accessed by anyone, are also excited about what the future holds:
“The Lacrosse Foundation exists to grow and develop the sport of lacrosse. By working with England Lacrosse to create this bursary programme, The Lacrosse Foundation intends to both widen access to the sport and grow talent through participation in the Talent Pathway”
