Jersey Sport performance grants to get islanders to podiums

Team Jersey at the Island Games

The Performance Sport Programme for 2025 will support talented athletes that have the potential to reach the top level of their sport.

Jersey Sport will distribute grants and coordinate access to support packages, giving athletes access to their highest potential. 

This is the second round of funding available after its pilot launch in 2024, which supported 24 athletes, including Rachel Leck, who is aiming to reach the 2028 Paralympics in discus.

The Performance Sport Programme will support local sport organisations to produce and equip athletes, coaches, and officials that can make it to International and World Levels. 

This will be delivered through a range of services, including medical support, media training, injury rehabilitation and nutrition advice

The programme is open for applications until 21 April.
