British Cycling provides direct support for Welsh talent

As of next month, Welsh cycling's talent program will be directly funded by British Cycling, reports News Wales. The move ensures the Wales Talent Team and its Olympic Talent coach will receive the same funding opportunities as other talent teams in Great Britain.

Said Welsh Cycling chief executive Peter Sommers: "This will mean that our young cyclists will have the same chance to achieve their goal of reaching the British Cycling Olympic Development programme as all other cyclists on other talent teams.
