What does the future hold for grassroots sports clubs? Are they getting the funding to survive and play their role in society?
Currently 15.3 million people play sport once a week every week. As part of the London 2012 Olympic legacy Sport England promised to provide £493 million* in grass roots funding between 2013 & 2017. But where has this funding gone to? Do grass roots clubs see any of this?
Is elite sport sustainable if lower levels struggle for financial survival?
What difference should funding make to grass roots clubs?
Will Brexit affect funding?
What role does grass roots sports play?
