All sports need funding. I know medals are the goal, but tell that to the athletes and competitors that now have funding withdrawn. Seems unfair to me.
Being serious, I see some funding for shooting but it isn't broken down by discipline (target, clay etc). Also para- fencing but not just fencing, which has always been one of our stronger sports.
POV Drone Racing would be a good one, but not as good as:
Big Gun Model Battleships. An Ozzie thing, scale model battleships 5-6" long, fibreglass, electric motor driven, with big cut-outs in the hull that are "armoured" with thin sheet balsa. They're armed with CO2 powered BB guns in the turrets (which can swivel...) and sink each other by pummelling holes through the balsa. Never tried it but it does look jolly good fun!
Good point what happened to the celebration of amateur endeavour.
How we squealed it was so unfair when the damn commies started running medal factories, never mind the drugs.
You want to run then run but I'm not taking money from the social care budget to pay for it even if its disguised in that great poor tax system the national lottery.
Endless poor mug punters buying some dreams to pay for me to run around a track wouldn't sit comfortably with my conscience.
I would just run to work not think the commute was the work.
The system inevitably leads to undeserving losers.
