Athletics Ontario’s Quest for Gold Athlete Assistance Program Athlete Application for Ontario CardNEW - Applications due by Friday, October 17, 2014 - NEWAthletes who anticipate that they will be nominated for National Carding are encouraged to also apply for Quest for Gold funding. If you don’t apply for the Quest for Gold program and you do not receive National Carding, you will be too late to apply to the Quest for Gold program. If in doubt apply. It won’t hurt. Please check off all of the following before you submit this Application. Incomplete applications will be returned and will not be processed until they are re-submitted. Applications which are returned are still subject to the original submission deadline.
Eligibility Criteria:
Residency Requirements: • Athlete must be a Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident (previously known as a ‘Landed Immigrant’). • Athlete must be a permanent resident of Ontario for one year prior to his/her nomination for carding status. • Athletes must be living in and continuing to train in Ontario. Exceptions to these criteria, known as a “Residency Exception” will be considered on a case specific basis by the PSO/MSO Selection Committee provided that the athlete can substantiate in writing at the time of application/Residency Exception submission deadline their reason for living outside Ontario, as detailed below. Residency Exception: The PSO Selection Committee may grant a Residency Exception for an athlete if the athlete provides information to show one of the following: (a) He/She cannot receive the required level of training in Ontario and is out of the province temporarily during the year (i.e. due to lack of facilities, coaching, and competitions); (b) He/She must attend a post-secondary institution out-of-province either because the course of study is not offered by an Ontario institution; or (c) It is more financially feasible to attend a post-secondary institution out-of-province. The onus is on the athlete to demonstrate that he/she needs to be out-of-province for one of the above reasons. The athlete must submit written documentation to the Athletics Ontario’s Selection Committee by the posted deadline, clearly indicating how they meet a residency exception(s). As a Residency Exception is still subject to Appeal by another athlete during the Appeals Process, it is essential that all Selection Committee decisions are based on a documented submission by the athlete, the content of which will be used in the “PSO Response” to any such Appeal. Athletes applying for a Residency Exception related to exception (a) above, who are training at an NSO-approved National Training Hub MUST include a letter from the NSO outlining their support for the athlete, the progress the athlete is making and the athlete’s potential to make the national team level. Length of time living outside Ontario: Athletes living outside Ontario for more than 30 consecutive days within the ministry fiscal year 2014-2015 for athletic or academic purposes must demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the PSO/MSO Selection Committee, that appropriate training programs are in place and are being monitored by the PSO/MSO. The onus is on the athlete to: 1. Provide a written plan outlining their training and competition plans to the PSO/MSO prior to their departure from Ontario, as part of their Residency Exception request; and 2. Adhere to the PSO/MSO-approved competition and training plan throughout the carding cycle. At a minimum, this requires regular (PSO/MSO to define frequency and method in their Selection Criteria) contact by the athlete with the PSO/MSO (PSO/MSO to define who to contact); and 3. Submit regular (PSO/MSO to define frequency) training logs to the PSO/MSO to track progress against the PSO/MSO-approved competition and training plan. Athletes who are AC carded or OHPSI (Ontario High Performance Sport Initiative) identified are exempt from the requirement.
In extraordinary circumstance, athletes may apply for an exception to the rules. Requests for an exception to the rules must be in writing and will be considered on a case by case basis by the Athletics Ontario Quest for Gold Selection Committee. In filling in the application form below, all applicants MUST provide written proof of all performances and/or results cited. Athletics Ontario staff will not search results or internet sites to verify performance or results. 2014 Quest for Gold Application FormName: _________________________________ Club: ___________________________ Year of Birth: ___/___/____ Sex: □ □ AO Registration #: ___________________ MM/DD/YY Male Female Address: _______________________________________ Apartment or Suite #: _______ City: ___________________ Province: ____________ Postal Code: _______________ Home Phone: ( ) __________________ Other Phone: ( ) ____________________ Email: _________________________ Coach’s Name: ___________________________ Coach’s Phone Number: ( ) ______________ Coach’s Email: ___________________ Canadian Citizen? □ □ If ‘No’, current Citizenship: ________________________ Yes No What is the name and location of the school you are attending? : ___________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ Are you currently on NCAA scholarship or attending an NCAA School? □ □ Yes No U.S. coach’s name and email: _______________________________________________ Event for which you are applying for carding: _________________________________
