Pro Scholarship Programme by Lexus | Wheelchair Performance Pathway
The Pro Scholarship Programme (PSP) presented by Lexus, supports players up-to a five-year period with the potential to achieve sustained success at the highest level of international wheelchair tennis. The objective is to progress into the World Tennis Wheelchair Tennis Tour top seven singles world rankings and contribute to Great Britain's performance objectives at Grand Slams, World Team Cups and Paralympic Games.
Players on PSP will typically operate as full-time, high-performance competitors, fully committed to the demands of elite training, competition and continuous performance development.
Players entering the programme will most commonly progress from the National Age Group Programme (NAGP) or Pro Transition Programme (PTP), having demonstrated the technical, tactical, physical and psychological attributes required to succeed at the highest levels of wheelchair tennis.
