THE IMPACT OF OUR WORK
We are leaders in the grassroots sport sector and our work over the past 17 years has been game changing – for individuals, for clubs and for communities.
Sported brings together the largest network of grassroots sports clubs and community groups in the UK.
Our support is unique, providing assistance that isn’t available from anyone else, to an invaluable ecosystem that makes a massive difference to millions of lives – every single day.
We reach every part of the UK. We collaborate with every type of organisation and slice of society. The scale and breadth of our work means we can deliver programmes nationally and locally – but with a universal ambition to create meaningful impact.
We don’t achieve this alone. We work with corporate, statutory and funding partners to grow and sustain grassroots sport:
Leveraging investment into the sector – we’ve distributed more than £10 million of funding since we began
Ensuring the sector is more accessible, sustainable and impactful – 89% of our group leaders report increased confidence in their ability to sustain their organisation
Improving health and wellbeing and creating stronger communities – 87% of groups in our network help to get inactive people active
Together we transform lives.
