Whilst Athletes are amateur ie not paid to compete, they still need to pay for kit, training, travel, entrance to competition, physio, psychologists, elite level training etc, GB have a great funding programme but it doesn’t stretch to all areas of sport |

Seriously? You didn’t realise that many Olympic competitors are funded? Have you watched any of the Olympics? Have you not noticed most of the GB competitors thanking the national lottery for fundinng them, their equipment, their coaches etc? |
