"content": "It is very encouraging to know that sports are very important and that we need funds set aside for the function. We are aware as Members of Parliament that we are always asked to sponsor sports, but we never have enough funds to do so. So, this is a Fund that is going to support sportsmen and sportswomen in the countryside. I remember asking how the Fund, if devolved, would reach the youth at the grassroots. I was informed very clearly that the Fund will support the youth at the grassroots level. All that is needed is for various sports organisations to apply for it at the national level so that they can be given some push to promote and encourage sports at the grassroots level. This is already a good move. This Bill will address issues of sports which young people crave for and have been looking forward to being supported in."
