Sponsor Local Talented Athletes

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.

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

Through the scheme local businesses can sponsor a talented athlete with benefits for both the athlete and the business
