The Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme, or TASS as it is better known, is a Government funded programme that represents a unique partnership between sport and higher and further education. This national scheme provides funds for talented young athletes who wish to pursue a formal academic programme but maintain their commitment to performance sport.

A TASS award is made on an annual basis and individuals are nominated by their National Governing Body.

Full details of the TASS Scheme are available by logging onto the TASS website at http://www.tass.gov.uk/
