This is an interesting article about the funding each GB sport receives, and what they will be receiving for Paris.
Skateboarding I think got the lowest amount of funding, I suppose that isn’t totally surprising but Sky Brown has brought a lot of attention to the sport and we do actually have a few young up and coming skaters right here in the uk. The problem is we just don’t have the quality skating facilities and funding that they have in other countries. The potential is there imo for us to compete in Olympic skateboarding it just needs the investment. Hopefully the ‘progression funding’ will help.
