This award is for student athletes who are competing at a very high level in individual or team sports. This would mean attendance at major Senior Championships such as Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth Games. Or be a top ranked age group athlete. In team sports a player would need to be a in a Senior or age group National team that competes in an International Tournament.
N.B. We are well aware that athletes and team players who compete at an International level already have excellent support from their clubs, sponsors and national governing bodies, therefore we will endeavour to put together a bespoke scholarship package that is best suited to their needs rather than providing access to a service or services that are not needed.
