FY 2014 Sports Visitor and Sports Envoy Program: The U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an open competition to support the FY 2014 Sports Visitor and Sports Envoy Program. Public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) may submit proposals to implement short term, high visibility sports visitor exchanges and sports envoy programs for underserved youth coaches and sports administrators. Sports Diplomacy enhances cross cultural understanding and opens new avenues of dialogue and collaboration between individuals and nations. Through this cooperative agreement, ECA plans to support approximately 125 youth from all regions of the world to participate in a 10 to 14 day U.S. based exchange program, as well as approximately 6 to 8 professional and amateur American athletes who will travel overseas to conduct outreach programming for youth audiences.
