Atmonauti
joins the SSA
At the AGM held on 14 May 2008, PASA
members voted to include Atmonauti (Atmo)
in the SSA stable of disciplines. This
will enable the discipline to receive
SSA funding in order to develop and
promote Atmo around the country. A committee
of 4 representatives was elected and,
moving forward, this committee will
be responsible for working with NSTO
to formalise the inclusion of Atmonauti
in the PASA Manual of Procedures and
for organising training and competition
related events. It will also liaise
with worldwide efforts to institutionalise
competition formats for Atmonauti, with
the view to send an SA Atmo contingent
to compete at the Atmonauti World Championships
from 2008 onwards. A demonstration Atmonauti
competition was held at the recent Nationals
meet at Skydive Xtreme. Future Nationals
meets will include a fully-fledged Atmonauti
competition.
The tick boxes on membership application/renewal
forms are used as a guideline for allocation
of SSA funds. Since there were no tick
boxes for Atmonauti at renewal time,
we ask that those who wish to support
this discipline do so by emailing their
preference below to admin@para.co.za :
