Talented young athletes from Coventry and Warwickshire have been given valuable support as they continue to develop their sporting potential.
A group of 30 young sports stars from across Coventry and Warwickshire have been awarded a total of £12,578 to help them achieve their sporting ambitions.
The bursaries were awarded during a special event at the University of Warwick’s Cryfield Pavilion in Coventry.
CAP, now in its fifth year, is a bursary scheme co-ordinated by CSW Sport which provides support to talented athletes from across the sub-region. The bursaries are funded by Warwickshire County Council and Coventry City Council.
The funding is used by athletes to assist their development by covering some of the costs associated with their sports including coaching, equipment, travel and competition entry fees.
The athletes were presented with their awards by Cllr Carolyn Robbins from Warwickshire County Council and David Nuttall from Coventry City Council.
Among those recognised during the presentations were Coventry triathlete Sian Rainsley, Stratford archer Michael McCarthy, Warwick fencer Ellie Cormack, Rugby golfer Lauren Taylor and Nuneaton judo expert Kyle Sweet.
