Scheme overview
Competing at the highest level in any sport is an expensive business. Travel, equipment, training, coaching and physiotherapy – the costs soon add up. The Hampshire Talented Athlete Scheme is an athlete-centred support programme designed to give Hampshire’s most talented athletes access to as much support as possible in order that they can reach their full potential.

Based upon population figures and financial contributions, Southampton City Council are sponsoring up to 12 athletes, Portsmouth City Council up to 13 athletes and Hampshire County Council up to 280 athletes.

HTAS works at three award levels, Gold, Silver and Bronze, with each being eligible for varying levels of support. An overview is available HERE.
