1 Funding opportunities Guide For australian snow sports athletes Vol 3.0 March 2013

2 Introduction Ski & Snowboard Australia Funding rationale Ski & Snowboard Australia is the nationally and internationally recognised governing body for competitive snow sports in Australia and is affiliated with the Federation Internationale de Ski (FIS) and Australian Olympic Committee (AOC). Ski & Snowboard Australia conducts events and programs in Alpine Skiing, Cross Country Skiing, Freestyle Skiing, and Snowboarding including specialty sub discipline activities within each. With the rapid expansion in recent times of new ski and snowboard disciplines, SSA effectively manages pathways across 11 different snow sports disciplines. A board of nine directors currently manages Ski & Snowboard Australia 4 directors elected by all individual members of Ski & Snowboard Australia for a term of two years. One director who is the chair of the SSA athlete s commission, for a term of two years. 4 skills based directors nominated by the above 5 directors for a term of two years. Ski & Snowboard Australia (SSA) National Federation (NF) At the sport development level, SSA is represented by four national discipline committees (Alpine, Cross Country, Freestyle and Snowboard) which are sub committees of the board. Each committee is responsible for sport development activities such as selection policies, team selections, domestic competition rules, national point s lists/rankings and managing domestic events calendars. SSA VISION To create snow sport champions by providing clear and supported athlete pathways. This guide has been prepared to outline the various funding and support opportunities available within the athlete pathway and through our high performance system partners, available to Australian snow sport athletes. Background Winter sports funding in Australia targets athletes and program areas in which Australia can be successful at the highest levels of international competition. Results by Australian athletes over the past eighteen years have continually surprised the international winter sports community. The cornerstone to the success of SSA athletes and programs is the partnerships with professional institutes of sport. SSA has a long established program partnership with the Olympic Winter Institute (OWIA) and Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) to deliver strategic program outcomes for elite high performance programs. In addition, SSA has long term partnerships with NSW Institute of Sport (NSWIS) and the Victorian Institute of Sport (VIS) to operate high performance development programs that underpin OWIA s High Performance athlete focus. The long term stakeholders of the strategic model underpinning past success (ASC, AIS, AOC, SSA, NSWIS, VIS) remain innovative and progressive in developing systems and partnerships to foster high performance success. SSA FUNDING The aims of allocating SSA high performance funding is: To target future high performance outcomes There are several important principles considered by the SSA Board when prioritising the allocation of high performance funding, including: That SSA funds programs not individuals High Performance funding will recognise past performance and more importantly, the potential for future performances The board will take into account those programs that underpin existing Olympic Winter Institute (OWI) programs Strong consideration for program funding be given to those programs which are Olympic events The SSA board will consider the program value achieved per dollar spent and the potential for external matched funding Consideration is given where program partners such as sport institutes, resorts, and sponsors complete the funding and service/facility requirements for the program. Occasionally the SSA board is in a position to allocate additional untied (non high performance) funds to sport related initiatives. This is generally done via one off grants to the SSA discipline committees. Any such grants are generally made on a nonrecurring basis and is a result of any untied financial surplus achieved by the organisation. The SSA discipline committees then make recommendations for special initiatives, projects or one off capital purchases. These requests, once put forward by the discipline committee are reviewed by the SSA CEO. Page 2

Event selections are generally based on an objective criteria and are designed to select athletes who have met the minimum performance standard required to compete and with regard to the relevant quota allocation in a ranked order. Event selections are separate from any Team and Scholarship selection. team selection Team selection occurs with respect to an objective criteria, made up of either; event, series, cup or world ranking points lists; age/ performance standards; results achieved at a relevant event, or a combination of all. Team selection may provide preference in regards to Event selection. Scholarship selection Scholarship selection criteria is set by the scholarship provider. While each criteria varies, selection typically takes into account objective performance measure and a subjective analysis by head coaches and selection committees taking into account the generic selection factors listed on page 11.

6 Institute scholarship opportunities Olympic winter institute of AUSTRALIA (owia)/ AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE OF SPORT (ais) In 1998 the OWIA was created and underwritten by the AOC with the AIS and ASC investing in the model. The purpose and fundamental aims of the OWIA are to provide opportunities for talented Australian athletes to participate in world class winter sport programs, which are capable of providing medal winning outcomes at the Olympic Winter Games (OWG). SSA has an agreement with the OWIA to operate its elite high performance snow sport programs, where there is a minimum performance level of top ten in the world. The choice of programs to be operated by the OWIA on behalf of SSA are agreed to by SSA. The technical and operational choices for each program are made by the OWIA. Olympic Winter Institute (OWIA) Olympic Training Centre (OTC) An agreed national approach to high performance has led to an efficiency of operation. AIS, NSWIS, VIS and OWIA resources can be effectively shared across different sport disciplines. This has provided each of the small speciality sport programs access to service and program management professionals, whose primary focus is Australian winter sport. Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) Olympic Training Centre (OTC) SSA supports the OWIA through high performance funding passed on from the ASC. The OWIA is additionally funded by the AOC, ASC and AIS. The allocation of funding to each SSA program area operated by the OWIA is made by the Board of Directors of the OWIA.
