Queen’s Sport offers a range of scholarship opportunities for our student athletes.

Queen’s Sport offers scholarship support through three separate schemes overseen by the Performance Sport Manager, Aidan O’Rourke. Students who are successful in obtaining a scholarship may receive between £300 and £5000 depending on the scheme they apply for and their proven ability or potential. Our Elite Athlete Programme offers two-tiers of financial support (£5000/£3000) in tandem with a range of supplementary benefits, including leisure and competition clothing, a bespoke S&C programme, access to physio and medical treatment on-site, and a free-pass for our gym and leisure facilities.

Queen’s prioritises five sports, Gaelic Games, Hockey, Rowing, Rugby, and Soccer, and we offer around 50 scholarship places in these sports in addition to the benefits listed above. Emerging players can win a place on our sub-academy, which offers the in-kind benefits without a monetary scholarship.

Students competing in other team sports and in individual sports to approximately national level can apply for places on our Sports Bursary scheme.
