Over the last fifteen years JudoScotland have received a subsidy from sportscotland to make coaching more affordable to a wider audience.

In 2026/27 sportscotland have updated their focus to shine a spotlight on EDI. This refocus now means that JudoScotland must refresh our subsidy policy moving forward, through our ‘Judo for All’ strategy we have identified some key target groups that will be considered for financial subsidy against our course costs.

For more information on sportscotland updated policy please visit their website here.

JudoScotland will consider course subsidy applications from all qualifying JudoScotland members who sit in one or more of our target groups for 2026/27.

• Females
• Members 16 years to 25 years

With consideration of the additional following categories where possible:

• Members from rural areas
• Disabled members
• Members from ethnic minorities
• Members living in 20% most deprived area according to the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD)

Successful applicants will receive funding at the rate of 25%, 50% or 75% towards the cost of their course.

To see if you qualify for subsidy for this event please complete the online form when you have selected your ticket.

If your application for subsidy is successful, a partial refund will be issued to you (upon completion of the course), you will also be notified by email.

If the applicant agrees to the subsidy offered and accept, they must complete the course within the dates advertised, failure to adhere to the agreed dates will result in the funding being forfeited and the applicant being invoiced for the required amount or the subsidy not being granted.
