[CMA] Sources of funding for a sporting event based RSL?

[Matt Hurst]

Dear All,

A student radio station recently approached me with a support request,
and as I don't really have a huge knowledge in this area, I thought
I'd ask you guys for some ideas.

Essentially, the station has been asked to provide official coverage
of the European Ultimate (Frisbee) Championships which are taking
place in the UK in July. The station is planning to undertake a 2 week
FM RSL to cover the event, and is looking for possible sources of
income to finance the broadcast. I've suggested they try Sport England
as one possible source of a grant, however it would be much
appreciated if anyone had any additional suggestions...?


Many thanks,
