The Barclays Community Sport Fund, delivered in partnership with Sported, helps to reduce inequalities in sport – with a focus on football, tennis, and cricket.
The fund supports community groups and grassroots sports organisations who are working within the most deprived areas of the UK and are making sport more accessible to women and girls, as well as engaging people from other underrepresented groups including people with disabilities, from racially diverse communities and from the LGBTQ+ community.
The programme will support thousands of community groups across the UK with a total investment of £1.4million a year over three years.
What can I apply for?
- A £1000 grant to help sustain and increase access to football, tennis, and cricket for women and girls
- Funding for football, tennis, and cricket coaching courses to help increase the number of female coaches delivering sport to girls
If successful for funding, your group will also be able to access:
- Exclusive match tickets, mascot places, and promotional opportunities
- Access to advice and support and signposting to training and resources
*Eligibility criteria apply. UK only. Grants subject to availability. This is a three-year funding programme running from April 2025 until December 2027.
