Sports clubs provide a brilliant structure to get people playing sport.

Sport England have recognised that running a club can be quite a difficult (and sometimes thankless) task. So they have come up with a single, one-stop-shop solution for those involved.

Launched on 12 February 2015, Club Matters provides free guidance, support and learning on all aspects of running a club.

Club Matters is Sport England’s one stop shop for clubs, groups and organisations involved in the delivery of physical activity and sport. Club Matters provides free, convenient, practical resources to help organisations to develop, grow and become more sustainable and successful.

It is split into the four topic areas below. Click on each section to access content, interactive guidance, online modules, toolkits and templates, to start building a brighter future for your sports club.

Club Finances - Finances are often a challenge for clubs, groups and delivery organisations. However, building a sustainable finance system can be hugely beneficial and provide the foundations for success.

Club Management - From making sure you have a development plan to ensuring you have appropriate facilities; good management underpins successful and vibrant organisations.


Club People - From members to volunteers and coaches/instructors who deliver activities, your people are what makes your organisation stand out from the rest.


Club Marketing - Want to attract new people to and keep them coming back? Knowing what your offer is and effectively communicating it is the key to successful marketing and promotion.
