Other organisations in the community can also be of value to clubs. Each Local Authority has a Sports Development or Leisure Services Department that houses a number of Sports Development Officers.  These officers can support the club in a number of ways:

  • Keeping clubs informed of wider sporting opportunities that are taking place locally and nationally
  • Providing training opportunities for coaches, administrators and other club personnel
  • Helping with applications for funding
  • Creating links with schools
  • Sourcing facilities or accessing time in facilities
  • Linking with other sports and community programmes
  • Supporting club promotions
  • Helping in the writing of development plans

Other help can be found from:

  • Teachers
  • National Governing Bodies 
  • Local Sports Councils
