ADVANCE COACHING
Jai Jinendra!
In accordance with our mission to encourage and promote young sporting talent I am very happy to announce the advanced coaching subsidy program.
The coaching camp scheme would be supporting Jain athletes by subsidising the coaching fees for them by 50% upto INR 50000. This will enable athletes to participate in coaching camps which may not be in their local vicinity as well as to attend highly specialised camps which may involve a foreign coach, etc.
Athletes competing at the State level or above can apply for the subsidy by sending their profile to jitogames@jito.org with the subject-line:
“Advanced Coaching Application: - < Athlete Naming;”
along with the details of the short-term coaching camp they intend to participate in. Following Scrutiny, a decision will be made on the application. Furthermore, if you are aware of Jain athletes who have won accolades in sports and games, you could let the committee know and they would be happy to get in touch with the concerned athletes with regards to how JITO could recognize their achievement.
