Attracting members from the whole community

This workshop identifies the benefits of opening up your 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 Clubmark; 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.

A Club For All is designed to be attended by volunteers in a club, (possibly a club member, member of the committee or the volunteer co-ordinator).
