Barclays Community Sport Fund - Sported

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 under-represented groups including people with disabilities, from racially diverse communities and the LGBTQ+ community. Groups can apply for:

• A £1000 grant to help sustain and increase access to football, tennis and cricket for women and girls (as well as engage people from other under-represented groups as listed above)
• Funding for football, tennis and cricket coaching courses to help increase the number of female coaches delivering sport to girls.
If successful, 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  

The fund closes on 22nd June 2025, but may close early if heavily oversubscribed.
