Across Great Britain, 22% of the population take part in team sports. However, more men play sport than women – with recent Sport England research outlining that 40.7% of men play sport at least once a week compared to 31.7% of women.
Women also predominantly take part in individual sports – such as swimming or running, and do not participate as fully in community-led, team sports.
If you wish to renew kit and equipment for an all-female team or even start up a new one, this grant round is exactly for you.
