FANS SCHEME                                    

 

What is FANS?

The Free Access to National Sportspeople (FANS) scheme provides national level sportspeople with free access to training facilities.  FANS aims to assist elite sportspeople to achieve their full potential by reducing the financial burden of training costs.  The Surrey FANS scheme was launched in 1996 and has so far helped over 700 national sportspeople with free access to training facilities.

 

Eligibility

FANS aims to help sportspeople of all ages who compete at national level.  To be eligible for the scheme you must be a current national level sportsperson from any Sport England recognised sport.  National level is deemed as either a member of a national squad or ranked in the top 10 (UK or England) for your age group.  Upon application to the scheme you must provide evidence from your national governing body (signed letter on headed paper) or publicly displayed information about your performance level (eg from the NGB website).

 

To be a Surrey FANS member, you must also reside in Surrey for the majority of the year (NB similar schemes operate in other counties - see links page for contact details).

 

Centre Information
There are 33 sports & leisure centres in Surrey that have kindly agreed to be part of the scheme, offering a range of facilities either free or at a very reduced cost.  There are sometimes limits on visiting times.  For a full list of the current centres and their restrictions, please click here.
 
Other Benefits
A host of sports therapy services are also available at specially discounted rated for Surrey FANS members.  For more information, please click here.
 

Cost

Please note that as of 1 April 2009, there is now a £10 administration fee to join the scheme or renew your membership.  Cheques should accompany your application and be made payable to "Surrey County Council".  You will receive your FANS membership card within 2 weeks.

 

How to Apply

If you would like to apply to the scheme or you require further information please do not hesitate to contact us on 01483 518944 or active.surrey@surreycc.gov.uk
