Academy of Sport
The University of Newcastle is proud to partner with the Hunter and Central Coast Academy of Sport
The Newcastle, Central Coast and Hunter regions have a long history of producing highly talented, elite athletes.
And, we are proud to partner with the Hunter Academy of Sport and the Central Coast Academy of Sport to help these athletes achieve on and off the field.
Our partnership enables student athletes to explore the many pathways, flexible study options, scholarships and support programs available at the University.
From Olympic silver medallists to national representatives, our Elite Athlete Program helps student-athletes balance their study and sporting commitments while also preparing for a fulfilling career after sport.
In March 2019 the University launched it’s partnership with the Hunter Academy of Sport, providing academy athletes with access to the University’s world-class facilities and resources, such as nutritionists and sports scientists.
