Sports Development Grants 

 

To date (August 2019) the Charity has awarded grants totalling over £19,000.

 

The charity has awarded grants of up to £500 to 47 primary schools and community organisations to set up or further develop a new sport, to particularly target those pupils who are least likely to participate. The growing list of sports includes football, rugby league and union, cycling, basketball, boxing, tennis, table tennis, martial arts, swimming, gymnastics, orienteering, boccia, new age curling and skateboarding. Feedback has shown increased participation, including amongst girls, children with special educational needs, and children who cannot afford kits for community sports clubs.
