The recent publication of the decree for the 2023-2024 subsidies aimed at promoting sports within the Calpe community has generated significant interest among local sports entities.
This initiative is designed to provide financial support across two distinct funding lines.
The first focuses on providing aid for participation in official sports competitions and promoting grassroots sports within the community. The second offers assistance specifically for the organisation of sporting events. This funding is essential for hosting competitions, tournaments, or festivals that can bring the community together and promote physical activity.
Financial support has been given to ten sports clubs in Calpe
Ten sports clubs have successfully secured financial support from the first of these subsidies, while three local sports organisations have benefited from funding under the second. The total allocation for these subsidies amounts to an impressive €224,039, making this the highest level of funding ever allocated to sports entities within the municipality to date.
One of the key objectives of these grants is to promote associationism among sports entities. To encourage this, the funding structure stipulates specific membership requirements to qualify for full subsidies. In addition to membership size, several assessment criteria are considered during the evaluation process. These include the number of athletes possessing a federation licence, participation in the Jocs Esportius of the Valencian Community, the range of categories represented by the club, the quality of competition offered, as well as the qualifications and expertise of the coaching and medical-health support staff.
