We are pleased to announce that all GB Pathway Referees can apply for individual grants of up to £600 to subsidise international FIE referee training or career development (eg refereeing at high profile international competitions) activities. For 2015-17 the money is accessed through a UK Sport programme to develop British Olympic referees.

1. Only FIE qualified or medium term FIE candidates (ie referees that expect to be put forward for exams in 17/18) may apply
2. Only British referees may apply for these grants
3. Grants can only be used to cover costs of flights, accommodation and food etc in accordance with the BF expense policy
4. Grants are limited to cover reimbursement within a specified time period – failure to claim monies in an appropriate period will result in expense claims being denied.
5. The typical grant will be of £300. Applications for more than £300 should cover multiple referee training /development opportunities
6. Domestic activities are excluded
   

The form should be submitted with an up-to-date copy of your Pathway Information Form (this form is the same as the original Pathway Application Form, so you should be able to re-use and update information from it).
