# Grappling Safety And Fair Process Initiative ## Proposed Amendments To SafeSport-Style Social And Legal Rule Sets Date: 2026-03-23 Status: Public-facing policy draft Purpose: propose specific amendments to current sport-safety rule sets so they better address malicious reporting, evidence integrity, and social process failures without undermining abuse reporting ## Positioning Rule These amendments should be presented as upgrades to governance quality, not as a sex-specific response. The initiative should not claim that women broadly weaponize reporting systems. It should claim the narrower and defensible point: - abuse can be hidden - malicious reporting can also occur - current systems need clearer safeguards against both failures ## Amendment Set ### 1. Replace Broad "False Report" Framing With A Narrower Standard Current problem: - public debate often collapses `unsubstantiated`, `mistaken`, `malicious`, and `knowingly false` into one bucket Amendment: - define `knowingly false or malicious reporting` as distinct misconduct - explicitly state that a good-faith report that cannot be substantiated is not itself misconduct Why: - this protects genuine reporters - this also creates a cleaner basis for sanctioning deliberate misuse ### 2. Add An Evidence-Integrity Standard Current problem: - many sport communities over-rely on gossip, pressure campaigns, and personality-based trust Amendment: - require documented intake - require evidence preservation requests at intake - require witness and context collection before final findings - require written rationale for findings and sanctions Why: - this creates a more defensible process for both complainants and respondents ### 3. Add A Social Proof And Corroboration Layer Current problem: - community narratives can harden before facts are reviewed Amendment: - create a `social proof system` defined as structured corroboration, not crowd voting - allow organizations to log: - witness accounts - attendance and class access records - travel and event records - prior documented complaints - communication records where available - power-relationship context - prohibit leadership from substituting popularity or online pressure for documented corroboration Why: - it reduces both impunity and rumor-driven punishment ### 4. Add A Temporary-Measures Threshold Matrix Current problem: - temporary restrictions are often either too weak or so vague that they look like undeclared punishment Amendment: - require organizations to define: - what level of allegation triggers what temporary measure - what notice is required - what review timeline applies - when restrictions expire or are reassessed Why: - this protects safety without letting "temporary" measures become indefinite punishment by inertia ### 5. Add Explicit Consequences For Malicious Process Misuse Current problem: - many policies prohibit false reporting in theory but do not explain consequences Amendment: - define sanctions for knowingly false or malicious reporting, scaled by seriousness: - written warning - suspension - removal from leadership or affiliate roles - competition or event restrictions - expulsion in severe cases Social consequences under policy: - internal record of the finding - loss of trusted-status or leadership eligibility - public disclosure only if the organization’s written threshold for publication is met Legal consequences: - preserve records for possible civil or criminal referral where local law and counsel support it - do not promise prosecution; state only that malicious misuse may create legal exposure depending on the facts and jurisdiction ### 6. Add Anti-Retaliation Symmetry Current problem: - retaliation rules are often discussed mainly in one direction Amendment: - clarify that retaliation protections apply to: - reporters - witnesses - respondents - anyone participating in the process Why: - this helps prevent both witness intimidation and reputational mobbing ### 7. Add A Controlled-Disclosure Rule Current problem: - sport communities often shift from secrecy directly into public accusation without any intermediate governance process Amendment: - define written publication thresholds - prohibit public lists based on accusation alone - limit public statements to neutral, supportable language Why: - reduces defamation risk - preserves trust in formal outcomes ## Social Proof System: Recommended Definition The initiative should define a `social proof system` as a structured corroboration framework that strengthens evidence quality without converting community popularity into truth. Required components: - time-stamped intake - evidence-preservation request - witness and context collection - conflict-of-interest check - written findings standard - internal case log Not allowed: - social media polling - anonymous pile-ons treated as proof - popularity-based credibility scoring - automatic public naming without threshold review ## Best Public Framing Use: - `malicious or knowingly false reporting` - `evidence integrity` - `structured corroboration` - `safety first, process always` Avoid: - `women harming men through false accusations` - `crazy women` - any sex-specific generalization that cannot be defended with evidence
# EBI Grant Expectation Memo Date: 2026-03-23 ## Purpose Translate the researched programs into realistic expectations for `EBI Live` and `EBI Doc`. This memo separates: - `headline program capacity` - `realistic expectation for EBI` ## Important rule Most of the strongest near-term opportunities for `EBI Live` are not formulaic grants with guaranteed payouts. They are: - discretionary event support - tourism support - venue support - negotiated host-market value That means the right expectation is usually a `range`, not a guaranteed number. ## 1. San Antonio / Texas for EBI Live ### What is official Texas film incentives can pay `up to 31%` of eligible Texas spend for qualifying moving-image projects, but the Texas Film Commission explicitly lists `sporting events or activities` as ineligible. That means: - `EBI Live` should not be underwritten on the assumption of a Texas state cash grant - a filmed companion or documentary may still have a separate angle later Official sources: - [Texas Film Commission program page](https://gov.texas.gov/film/page/tmiiip_filmtv) - [Texas incentive one-sheet FY26](https://gov.texas.gov/uploads/files/film/Incentive_One_Sheet_FY26.pdf) ### Real expectation for EBI Live Expected state grant: - `~$0` for the live sporting event itself What to expect instead: - city or host support - venue relief - in-kind support - local introductions and operating help Practical expectation: - `low five figures` to `low six figures` of combined in-kind and possible local support is plausible - but there is no current official public formula that justifies assuming a fixed Texas cash grant for the live event This is an inference from the program rules and market structure, not an official quoted amount. ## 2. Singapore for EBI Live ### What is official The `Kickstart Fund` supports innovative events and concepts with strong tourism potential and scalability, and is capped at `up to S$250,000 per edition`. Official source: - [Singapore Tourism Board Kickstart Fund](https://www.stb.gov.sg/licensing-support/grants/kickstart-fund/) ### Real expectation for EBI Live Because the fund is discretionary and merit-based, the right expectation for a first EBI submission is not the cap. Practical expectation: - `S$75,000 to S$175,000` is a realistic working range for a credible first-edition tourism-forward concept - `S$250,000` is the ceiling, not the planning base This range is an inference from the official cap and the fact that first-edition discretionary event support usually lands below maximum. ## 3. New Zealand for EBI Live ### What is official The `Events Boost Fund` is a one-off `$10 million` fund. It has required local-government support and says local-government contributions must equal at least `25%` of the total public investment. The fund has closed to applications in its current round. Official source: - [Events Boost Fund](https://www.mbie.govt.nz/immigration-and-tourism/tourism/tourism-funding/events-boost-fund) The broader package also includes a `$40 million Events Attraction Package`. Official source: - [Major Events and Tourism package](https://www.mbie.govt.nz/about/news/major-events-and-tourism-package-to-boost-economic-activity) ### Real expectation for EBI Live Because this is contestable, the right expectation is: - no guaranteed near-term grant - but meaningful support is possible if EBI is positioned as an international or regional-level draw with a strong tourism case Practical expectation: - `NZ$100,000 to NZ$500,000` is a realistic strategic range for a well-supported event ask - but timing, local-partner support, and eligibility are all major variables This range is an inference from the official fund size, the required local match logic, and the program’s focus on meaningful tourism impact. ## 4. New Zealand for EBI Doc ### What is official The `New Zealand Screen Production Rebate` for international productions offers: - `20%` base - possible `5% uplift` in some circumstances Official sources: - [NZSPR page](https://www.nzfilm.co.nz/incentives/rebate-international-nzspr) - [NZSPR summary PDF](https://www.nzfilm.co.nz/assets/resources/8587_NZFC_RebatesSummaries_Nov2025_International.pdf) ### Real expectation for EBI Doc This is formulaic if the production qualifies. Example expectations: - if qualifying NZ spend is `NZ$300,000`, expect `~NZ$60,000` base - if qualifying NZ spend is `NZ$500,000`, expect `~NZ$100,000` base - uplift should be treated as upside, not base planning ## 5. Malta for EBI Doc ### What is official The Malta Cash Rebate remains one of the stronger filmed-content incentives in the research base, with `30%` base and up to `40%` with cultural uplift. Official source used in the project: - [Screen Malta guidelines PDF](https://screenmalta.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Screen-Malta-Financial-Incentives-FILM-TV-GUIDELINES-UPDATES.pdf) ### Real expectation for EBI Doc Example expectations: - if qualifying Malta spend is `€300,000`, expect `~€90,000` base - if uplift applies, that could move toward `~€120,000` ## Bottom line ### For EBI Live Best realistic grant/support expectation: - `Texas / San Antonio`: do not assume state cash grant; pursue local support and in-kind value - `Singapore`: `S$75,000 to S$175,000` realistic working range - `New Zealand`: `NZ$100,000 to NZ$500,000` strategic range, but slower and more conditional ### For EBI Doc Best realistic incentive expectation: - `New Zealand`: `20%` of qualified local spend, likely the cleanest formulaic path - `Malta`: `30%` base of qualified local spend, with upside to `40%` ## Recommendation For the next EBI: 1. treat `San Antonio` as the highest-probability execution market 2. treat `Singapore` as the best near-term international discretionary-support shot 3. treat `New Zealand` as the strongest event-plus-doc or doc-first path ## Source notes I attempted to pull older budget data from your Google S …
# EBI Live Cashflow Schedule Date: 2026-03-23 ## Working budget model Current working all-in base: - `show core`: `$150,000` - `travel`: `$50,000` - `post`: `$25,000` - `working all-in base`: `$225,000` Venue is intentionally not hard-budgeted yet and should be treated as: - host-supported - separately negotiated - or added later once the city path is clearer ## Cashflow principle Do not think about this as one lump sum. Think about it as: 1. money needed to open the project 2. money needed to lock the event 3. money needed to deliver the event 4. money needed to finish and exploit the event ## Phase 1. Pre-commitment cash Timing: - now through initial market / partner discussions Expected uses: - deck and budget development - rights and sponsor outreach prep - preliminary legal / structuring work - internal planning Target cash need: - `low five figures` if handled lean Best funding source: - internal bridge capital ## Phase 2. Event lock cash Timing: - once host-market and event path are serious Expected uses: - deposits and date holds - insurance setup - key vendor holds - initial travel bookings - early athlete commitments Target cash need: - roughly `20% to 30%` of all-in budget - working estimate: `$45,000 to $70,000` Best funding source: - host support - initial sponsor commitments - rights advance if available - private bridge if required ## Phase 3. Production cash Timing: - 30 to 14 days before event Expected uses: - production vendor payments - remaining athlete guarantees - flights and hotels - staffing, medical, security, and compliance - promo push Target cash need: - roughly `50% to 60%` of all-in budget - working estimate: `$110,000 to $135,000` Best funding source: - sponsor cash - rights commitment - host support - internal or bridge gap capital ## Phase 4. Event-week cash Timing: - final week through show day Expected uses: - final balances - local transport - event-day labor - guest servicing - problem solving and contingencies Target cash need: - roughly `10% to 15%` of all-in budget - working estimate: `$22,500 to $34,000` Best funding source: - held contingency - already-closed revenue ## Phase 5. Post-production and wrap cash Timing: - immediately after event through delivery Expected uses: - recap edit - finishing - graphics and social derivatives - final accounting and wrap Target cash need: - `~$25,000` Best funding source: - rights partner - sponsor wrap allocation - retained cash reserve ## Recommended source stack ### Priority order 1. host support to reduce venue and local execution burden 2. sponsor cash for event production and partner-facing inventory 3. rights money to reduce back-end pressure and support post 4. bridge capital only for timing gaps ## Minimum close needed to move safely Before locking the event, the safe minimum is: - enough cash to cover `Phase 2` - plus high confidence on `Phase 3` Working standard: - do not move into hard commitments unless you can see at least `~$125,000 to $150,000` of near-certain coverage across cash, commitments, and support ## Practical operating rule The project should not rely on speculative sponsor money arriving late to cover early hard commitments. Secure: - host support first if possible - then anchor sponsor / rights confidence - then finalize venue and production commitments
# EBI Live Base Budget Line Items Date: 2026-03-22 ## Base case target `$150,000 core show budget` Separate additions: - travel - post production ## Show production core: `$45,000` - live production vendor / crew: `$20,000` - cameras / switching / audio / comms: `$12,500` - graphics / playback / stream delivery: `$7,500` - technical contingency: `$5,000` ## Athlete compensation: `$45,000` - 16-man field guarantees / purses: `$35,000` - select appearance uplifts / reserves: `$10,000` ## Event operations / staffing: `$18,000` - event manager / coordinators: `$7,500` - local labor / runners / backstage support: `$5,000` - admin / credentialing / guest flow support: `$5,500` ## Security / medical / insurance / legal: `$15,000` - security: `$4,000` - medical / EMT / ambulance: `$3,500` - insurance: `$3,500` - legal / compliance: `$4,000` ## Marketing / event content capture: `$12,000` - promotional creative and paid support: `$5,000` - stills / social / recap capture: `$4,000` - PR / comms / promo edits: `$3,000` ## Working contingency: `$15,000` ## Core total `$150,000` ## Travel add-on: `$50,000` Assumption: - mostly U.S.-based competitors - some local athletes as needed Working travel split: - athlete flights: `$18,000` - athlete hotels: `$12,000` - crew travel and hotels: `$10,000` - local transport / airport movement: `$5,000` - reserve for late bookings / changes: `$5,000` ## Post-production add-on: `$25,000` Working post split: - event edit / recap cut: `$10,000` - color / finishing / audio cleanup: `$5,000` - graphics / deliverables / export prep: `$5,000` - clips / social derivatives: `$5,000` ## Total `$225,000 all-in working base` ## Read This is the right current read because it matches the new instruction more closely: - `$150,000` for the show itself - plus travel - plus post The venue is intentionally not locked into this number yet because it will be negotiated once the budget and host-market path are clearer.
# EBI Live Budget Top Sheet Date: 2026-03-22 ## Assumptions - This is for `EBI Live`, not the companion documentary. - The event is a premium one-night broadcast of approximately `3 hours`. - Tournament structure: `16-man bracket` - Most competitors are expected to come from the `United States` - Some local athletes may be used where needed - Venue is still `TBD` and will be finalized after budget is secured - Current user instruction: - `base show budget = $150,000` - plus `travel` - plus `post production` ## Scenario summary | Scenario | Total | Use case | | --- | --- | --- | | Core show only | `$150,000` | Base event production before travel and post | | Working all-in base | `$225,000` | Core show + travel + post | | Stretch all-in | `$300,000` | Heavier travel, stronger post, and more buffer | ## Top sheet | Category | Core show only | Working all-in base | Stretch all-in | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Show production core | $150,000 | $150,000 | $150,000 | | Travel / lodging | $0 | $50,000 | $80,000 | | Post production | $0 | $25,000 | $35,000 | | Additional contingency | $0 | $0 | $35,000 | | **Total** | **$150,000** | **$225,000** | **$300,000** | ## Read on the scenarios ### Core show only Use when: - you are isolating the event production budget before travel and post - you want the cleanest base number for financing discussions ### Working all-in base Use when: - you want the realistic operating number for the next EBI - travel and post are included - venue remains a separate later decision or host-supported item ### Stretch all-in Use when: - travel expands - post gets more ambitious - more buffer is needed before venue is fixed ## Recommendation Under the current information, the working target should be: `$225,000` all-in working base Reason: - `$150,000` is the right core show number under the current instruction - the event becomes more realistic at roughly `$225,000` once travel and post are included - venue should be treated as a later negotiated item, not as a fake precision number today ## Next build The next financial step is a line-item budget under the `working all-in base`, then sensitivity versions for: - `San Antonio` - `Dallas` - `Singapore` - `New Zealand`
