The Hillclimb and Sprint Association (HSA) is the leading club for competitors, spectators, officials and enthusiasts of the sport of Speed Hillclimbing and Sprinting in the UK. Its aims are to represent the interests of all those involved (competitors, spectators, organisers and governing bodies) and to attract & support new entrants into the form of motor sport, which is arguably one of the cheapest ways to compete in motor sports today.

The sport of Sprinting which began at Bexhill-on-Sea, England in 1902 is a time trial for most types of motor vehicles along a flat section of tarmac including race circuits and airfields and is a very popular type of motor sport especially in the UK, Europe, North America (eg Willow Springs) and Australia (eg Leyburn).

The sport of Speed Hillclimbing which began at Shelsley Walsh, England in 1905 is a time trial for most types of motor vehicles up a tarmac track and is a very popular type of motor sport especially in the UK, Europe (eg La Pommeraye), North America (eg Pikes Peak) and Australia (eg Bathurst).
