SPORTING OPPORTUNITIES ISLE OF WIGHT
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE FINANCIAL PERIOD 30/6/2021 TO 31/03/2022]
Sporting Opportunities Isle of Wight (SOIW) was established on 30[th] June 2021 to provide opportunities for adults and young people with learning disabilities living on the Isle of Wight to participate in sport including, where possible, participating in competition.
SOIW is an entirely volunteer run organisation and has no employees and none of the volunteers receive any remuneration.
During the period of this report, SOIW athletes participated in athletics, indoor bowls, swimming, table tennis, badminton and multi-sports. Training sessions for these sports generally were run weekly except during school holidays.
Unfortunately, due to COVID and other issues there were no competitions available except for the Downs Association National Swimming Gala which 2 of our swimmers attended with very successful results. We continue to seek opportunities to participate in more competitions.
We are very grateful to the volunteer coaches that led our training sessions and to the venues that allow us to use their facilities at no charge or at a discounted rate.
Finally, we thank those organisations that have made donations to us – notably the Freshwater Bay Golf Club. Their generosity has enabled us to avoid asking our athletes to pay subscriptions during this reporting period.
