My British husband tells me that their Lottery funds the Olympic athletes Britain. Not exactly the Government, but close. Glad they did well though.
Many colleges are now cancelling non-profitable sports. This will affect our future Olympics in track and field, swimming, diving, water polo, wrestling, volleyball, rowing, handball, badminton, weightlifting, gymnastics, and others.
Is the lotto funding enough for them to pays all all normal and customary bills?
