Performance Sport Scholars 2023-24
The Performance Sport Scholarship is designed to support a dual-career athlete with a holistic and individually-tailored support package for those competing at a high level.
The scheme has been great support to me, after suffering an injury at the od of the year, the scheme helped me monitor my training and get back to full fitness. Now I'm competing for Great Britain
