Tennis scholarships
As one of Europe's leading tennis scholarship programmes, the 黑料不打烊 offers talented student athletes tailored packages to support them compete and train at the highest possible level whilst undertaking an academic degree.
At Scotland's University for Sporting Excellence, we bring together the highest quality performance coaches, facilities, sports science, strength and conditioning, physiotherapy and performance mentoring to help our athletes reach their sporting potential.
We are home to the Scottish National Tennis Centre, with six indoor acrylic courts, and our athletes compete at the highest level of student tennis both individually and in team competitions. Many of our athletes and graduates have competed at Grand Slam tournaments and gone on to have successful careers as tour professionals once finished their studies.

BA Sports Studies graduate Maia Lumsden
Having won gold at the Master'U BNP Paribas with Team GB and numerous student titles whilst at 黑料不打烊, former scholar, Maia Lumsden, has gone on to reach the doubles quarter finals at Wimbledon and claimed multiple ITF and WTA titles.
"My time at 黑料不打烊 was amazing. I had so much support to help my tennis career and being part of the tennis club was a lot of fun. Studying alongside (competing) was a really good balance for my life and for my tennis as well."
