Matt,
On the money front....
At the World Youth, Euroyouth and the EU Youth, the organisers normally provide a "free" place for the Head of Delegation and one coach (full board accommodation). CS pay the flights and transfers for these folks.
Players receive a funded place for one boy and one girl at ages U8-U18. Effectively this means that the junior concerned receives free full board accommodation for the duration of the event.
The parents and the player selected for the funded place have to pay all their own flight and transfer costs, plus normal entry and organisational fees.
The cost to ChessScotland is massive but effectively all players receive an equal part of the CS budget.
