SEWLA Funding Initiatives

The South East Region has a small funds process. In the first instance however we suggest you apply for a grant from other organisations, for more information, please see this page.

Becoming Level 1 Coaches and Umpires

Having plenty of umpires and coaches qualified is core to the success and growth of lacrosse. As such South East will fund 50% of the cost of becoming qualified as a Level 1. Anyone in the South East wishing to claim this funding should book, pay for and attend a course. After completion an expense claim form (below) including proof of payment to southeastlacrosse@gmail.com.

General Development funding

We also provide general grants to existing clubs and schools as well as towards setting up new clubs or schools. Grants are up to £250 per entity and must fund the development of the sport. Some examples of what we will fund:

• Qualifying Level 1 umpires and coaches

• Club goalie kit

• Goals for new clubs or new teams

• Up to 50% of the first 6 weeks training costs (space hire or coach)

*As a general rule, SEWLA does not fund Kit/clothing.

All requests should be emailed to southeastlacrosse@gmail.com in time for a South East meeting (Sept, Nov, Jan, March) where attendees of the meeting will vote on the applications we receive.

Super-Counties and South East Coaching Funding

Coaches who commit to at least 2 seasons with us can also receive funding for advancing their qualifications to a higher level.
