STS is pleased to announce that we are seeking applications to the Performance Programme and the process is now open.

Selections would normally take place in the autumn, however because of the work going into facilitating the transition of the programme from sportscotland to STS this did not take place last year. In order to minimise disruption to the athletes, coaches and the programme, we will not be going through the full selection process for the whole programme until the end of the season. However, due to these exceptional circumstances, we will be looking at a limited intake of new athletes onto the programme in the next couple of months. Athletes wanting to be included should first complete the written application below and, if chosen, will then be asked to attend an assessment day.

Any athlete wishing to be considered should submit an application using the online form below by 31st March 2019.

Applicants accepted on to the next stage will then be invited for an assessment day (exact dates TBC and will vary in each discipline) with the discipline-appropriate Performance Coach and an interview with the Performance & Pathways Manager.

Successful applicants will likely begin their involvement with the Performance Programme from spring onwards. This process will be used to further refine the selection policy and the finalised document will be made publicly available shortly after in preparation for selections in the autumn. We look forward to receiving your application.
