We want to make Teesside a beacon for national sport

The FAST Fund exists to provide financial support to Teesside’s talented sportspeople who have the ability to reach the very top in their chosen sport – but need additional resources.

Talented local sportsmen and women can apply for funds to enhance their sporting opportunities and develop their talent.

Whether it’s for an overseas competition or coaching opportunity, for vital equipment or some other crucial element to your development, you can apply for a grant from the FAST Fund.

We are unable to accept any applications from children aged 12 years or younger.
