Course details
This workshop identifies the benefits of opening up your sports club, to include a wider membership base - meaning more coaches, players, officials and increased revenue, improved eligibility for lottery funding, and quality ratings such as GymMark; whilst ensuring the involvement and support of the local community.
The 'A Club for All' workshop outlines how your club can benefit from reaching all members of the community, and explains how to reach out to them - young people, older people, those on low incomes, disabled people and people from ethnic minorities.
By the end of the workshop you will be able to:
- explain what "sports equity" means
- list the benefits of sports equity for your sports club or organisation
- identify equitable and inequitable practice
- identify key equity challenges for your sports club or organisation
- identify the steps you may need to take in your own club or organisation to start a basic action plan for equity
- identify the organisations that can help you and provide further guidance on sports equity.
