SPORT
A Major Scholarship may be awarded to a good "all rounder" in major games (netball, rugby, hockey, football, rounders, cricket, cross country, athletics, gymnastics and tennis). Minor Scholarships may be given for individuals who have strengths in a limited range of sports, or a particular sport.
