Aims of the team
The aim of the team is to compete at the ICU World Championships / European Championships. We will only take the team to these competitions when ready to do so. Ideally the first competition will be the ICU worlds 2014, however we will not make a final decision on this until October. When trying out for the team you should however anticipate attending this competition.
Fundraising
All team members will be expected to participate in fundraising activities to support the national team. This will range from staffing competitions and camps, to selling raffle tickets and other more traditional activities.
This is great news for our Sport and I hope loads of people tryout so they can put a great team together. It seems that this board is fully prepared to work and will not take the team until they are fully ready which is GREAT TO HERE.
