Scholarships and you help athletes Spaniards will be drastically reduced throughout 2013, among other things because in Spain there is a lack of money and logically it has to be cut equally in everything related to scholarships for this year 2013 in which the crisis is still very present and logically it causes cuts in scholarships to be made.
In this sense, the reduction of aid with public money for Spanish athletes is in general 34%, which is a hard cut but necessary given the economic situation in which the country finds itself, so this cut was already expected from some months.
Among the most important reductions we find the aid that athletes from athleticsSince they will have 44% less aid for this year and logically it is a delicate situation for many of them, both for those who get medals and for those who get nothing. If students are suffering cuts, logically aid to athletes also have to suffer a severe cut, as it has been.
Logically for many of the athletes it is a problem since the money they can receive as help is less and less and other modalities such as Swimming with a 23% reduction will also be affected, Taekwondo 12%, among other important cuts that have been carried out for this year.
