Or clubs could go and ask their local council about what they can do and apply to the charitable funds already there. We did and got some money to put coaches through the UKUA course. Talk to you council and think about taking ultimate to your local schools. There is loads of stuff clubs can do with a little help from other organizations and people do want to help you if you ask for it. Now our local council is going to act as an umbrella body and help us get CRB disclosure on all the coaches we train. Stop asking what can the UKUA do for me and go and get it done on your own with the resources there already. It makes Ultimate look better too to the rest of the sporting community.

How about a UKU organised (semi-funded?) first-aid course, run in the same opt-in fashion as the coaching course? With enough subscribers (I'm in), cover could be provided during a whole tournament in gaps between games. Just a thought.
