Club Leaders: Better business skills for sport

The Club Leaders project is about supporting you in the business of running your club. It is completely free of charge and open to anyone involved in sports club management.

Primarily the vision of Club Leaders is to achieve a stronger sporting club network stretching all over England.  We want you to be part of this!

We know that the people behind the scenes are the backbone of sports clubs and this programme is here to support you, saving you time and providing tips to save money.

How will “better business skills for sport” be delivered?

WEBSITE

Our dynamic Club Leaders website (www.sportenglandclubleaders.com) provides e-learning modules, discussion forums, news, events and more!

SEMINARS

What are Club Leaders seminars?

Club Leaders seminars are face-to-face training for groups of at least 8 clubs leaders focusing on key business skills that clubs need to be sustainable. These seminars build upon the content of the online modules, but also include case studies, topical issues, exercises and a discussion section which gives clubs leaders the chance to ask questions and share their experiences with the group.

MENTORING

Mentoring is a one-to-one relationship of volunteers from within business who are willing to apply their business skills and assist their locally based sports clubs to become more successful.

• Mentoring is about providing a confidential, supportive and challenging environment in which a mentor helps their club leader(s) explore and develop how they want to take their club forwards.

• Mentoring can provide a different perspective on issues a club may be facing and offers a safe environment to share experiences.

LEARNING BUS

The “Learning Bus” tours the country as a promotional tool and mobile training facility.  This gives you opportunity to find out how the project can help you by interacting with Club Leaders staff.  There are also fourteen computers on board which can be used to have a go at the e-learning modules.
