It's not about sourcing funding, it's about whether bike polo is a sport. We're currently years off being considered one really (unless the number of participants in the UK increases dramatically ), bike polo in schools is a huge leap forwards though. We should probably keep BC more up-to-date with bike polo news each year... I think James is approaching BC at the moment.
It's very possible that bike polo could still be a flash in the pan thing, linked to cycle culture and boozey trips abroad to meet like-minded individuals.
British Cycling get to decide if bike polo is a sport (or not). The only way of adding pressure would be to campaign, or get some influential people to champion bike polo (a bit like we did with Sarah Burrows at the Mayor's Office, etc).
