Path to Nationals
An elite performance scholarship fund. Scholarships remove financial barriers and provide the coaching, gear, travel and nutrition needed to compete on equal footing.
What the fund does
This fund unlocks national-level opportunities for talented young athletes in Oaxaca, many from rural and Indigenous communities.
It covers elite coaching, performance gear, GPS training tools, pre-race nutrition and travel to qualifiers.
Why it matters
Many athletes qualify with borrowed gear and train on rural roads with minimal support. Talent is abundant; access is not. This fund provides the tools and travel needed to compete fairly.
What the fund delivers
- Elite coaching: personalised training plans and long-term mentorship from certified coaches
- Gear and technology: performance gear, GPS devices and recovery tools
- Travel and nutrition: transport, entry fees and pre-race meals to reach qualifiers
Goals to 2028
- Support five to eight elite athletes a year to reach national qualifiers and finals
- Reduce dropout caused by gear and travel costs
What your support can cover
