Help get Team Scotland to ISA Worlds
Donation protected
Team Scotland is going to the ISA World SUP & Paddleboard Championships in Denmark in September 2024, and we need your help to get there!
We are 6 athletes who won qualification through the Scottish National Championships in Portobello. Your donation will help us with the costs of sending the team to the World Championships. Race fees are £215 per entry, and Team Scotland is proudly submitting 11 entries across 7 events. What we raise above this will go towards team kit, travel and accommodation costs.
