About This Opportunity

The Athlete Travel Award Scheme (ATAS) supports travel costs for Highland and island competitors to help talented athletes from the Outer Hebrides, Orkney, Shetland and Highland to gain better access to competitive and developmental opportunities available on the mainland. Successful applicants benefit from up to £1,500 to support travel and accommodation costs in attending training and competitions. The scheme is highly competitive with a consistently high standard of applicants. Recipients are reviewed at quarterly intervals to assess progress against specific SMART goals, and continued funding is contingent upon achieving these interim targets. Coaches are expected to be engaged throughout the process, including interim review meetings.
