Funding for sports clubs and community groups

21 April 2010

Sports clubs and organisations, youth and community groups can now apply for grants of up to £1,500 and can receive extra information and marketing materials to make their activities even more successful. The aim of PlaySport London: Free Sport is to increase the number of people regularly taking part in sport across the capital, with a particular focus on participants receiving 6 hours or more coaching as a result of taking part in the programme.

As part of the Mayor’s Plan, ‘A Sporting Future for London’ aims to provide free sporting opportunities to Londoners. The PlaySport London: Free Sport programme provides grant funding to sports clubs and community groups in order to encourage greater participation in sport in the build up to the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games
