Everything You Need To Know About Starting A Sports Club For Kids
Starting a sports club? Then you are in luck! Welcome to “Everything You Need To Know About Starting A Sports Club!”
We work with hundreds of sports clubs across the UK, so this essential guide is full of the advice they have told us they would have welcomed when starting out.
Funding For Sports Clubs
Great news! You might not need as much money as you think to set up a children’s sports club.
If you’re on a tight budget but dream of sharing your sports knowledge and skills, there are lots of support avenues you can wander down. All it takes is time (and sometimes some form-filling).
Once you’re up and running with your core services, there are many extra things you can do to boost your club’s income – via additional revenue streams, sports grants, grass roots sports funding or sports club fundraising.
Sports Club Marketing
One of the key things to consider pre-launch is how you will promote your new sports club. Planning your sports club marketing and advertising will ensure you start strong and give parents the confidence to book as soon as you’re up and running.
Take it from us: any time spent making your brand stronger before launching your sports club is well spent, as having a solid brand in place will pay dividends as you grow.

Sports Club Insurance
With great sportsmanship comes great responsibility. From data protection to risk assessments, establishing certain protection measures is a crucial element of managing a sports club.
Your safety net for when things don’t go to plan, sports club insurance provides financial coverage in case of an accident or unforeseen circumstance. And having the right kind is a game-changer. Pick highly-rated providers who have bags of experience insuring clubs like yours.
While not mandatory for all insurance providers, a sport club risk assessment allows you to highlight and sidestep unwanted events – before they happen.
Sports Club Recruitment
Your sport club’s success depends on choosing the right players for your team.
There are many things to consider when selecting employees. Sports academy training and recruitment is built on club ethos alignment, hiring creativity champions, growth enthusiasts, kid-smart coaches and an understanding that lessons from the club support kids ‘off the pitch’, too.
Once your dream team is in place, you might want to consider investing in training and development. Doing so will unleash the full potential of your team and set high standards from the get-go – something that many parents appreciate as well!
