GOA set criteria for federation and association assistance

Jan 01, 2017 Sports

The Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) in its continuing efforts to assist with the development of athletes via the respective associations and federations affiliated to the association has set criteria for its affiliates to benefit.
Affiliated to the International Olympic Committee (IOC), the GOA has noted in the missive sent out that each year it offers financial and other support but despite its best efforts just a few of its affiliates provide information which allows the entity to plan for the year in an efficient manner.
Given this fact, the GOA has written its affiliates seeking the early submission of the required information that would allow the GOA to assist.
Following is the list of requirements that has to be submitted by January 25, 2018.
Detailed 2018 calendar specifying:
1. Names and dates of all events in which the Federation will be participating
2. Names and dates of any international events being hosted by the Federation
3. Events for which it is hoped that the GOA can provide support
4. Kind of support needed in each case
2. In the case of National Federations planning to send athletes to the 2020 Olympic Games
1. List of qualifying events in which you hope to participate
2. Names of all athletes being prepared for the 2020 Games
Please note that there will be the following additional requirements for those who require funding or any other form of support:
1. Ensure that your annual affiliation fee is paid to the GOA
2. Meet all deadlines set by the GOA
3. Submit the attached Athlete and Official Registration form for ALL POSSIBLE Athletes and Officials who may represent Guyana during 2018 by January 25, 2018
