The Commonwealth Games organising committee has designed a hand-over ceremony which will take place at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi, India from 12th to 17th October 2010. This ceremony marks the hand-over to next Commonwealth Games which will take place in Glasgow in 2014.

Each local authority in Scotland has been invited to nominate three places which will be fully funded ( approximate costs per person are £3,500 ). Clackmannanshire Council is required to nominate three people who meet the hand-over criteria and are passionate about physical activity and sport. There are so many people volunteering in sport in Clackmannanshire that it is going to be difficult to choose just three.

We are inviting people to apply for the three fully funded places. Please find attached an application form. Completed forms should be returned to me by Friday 16th April 2010. Successful applicants must meet all the hand-over criteria and attend ALL the training sessions.

If you don't get one of the fully funded places, there will also be opportunities to apply for self funded places. This process has still to be confirmed. More details can be found on-line at www.glasgow2014.com.
