GRANT APPLICATIONS
A Partnership approach
The Bill Richards Trust has two key ways Canterbury registered athletes can gain funding.
Athletes applying for funds must have Canterbury as their home and be willing to use their ability to ensure Canterbury is the best place to be a long distance runner.
DEVELOPMENT GRANTS
Championing the Cause
The Bill Richards Trustees recognize they need to invest in emerging athletes.
​
Development grants will be awarded to athletes or coaches the Trustees see as having the potential to achieve well in the marathon discipline.
​
The ability of a recipient to give back to the sport is a key feature of these grants.

EVENT GRANTS
Achieving the dream
These are for national or international competitions or courses that will assist in achieving the goal of greatness in marathon running.
Athletes applying for these funds should have already demonstrated their potential in a range of Canterbury events.
