Not-for-profit organisations across the UK can apply for £1,000 grants to support projects increasing access to football, cricket and tennis for women and girls, particularly in disadvantaged or remote communities. Eligible applicants include charities, community and youth groups, and sports clubs, primarily operating in Indices of Multiple Deprivation areas 1–3, though some exceptions apply. Funding is unrestricted and can cover delivery and core revenue costs such as equipment, coaching and venue hire, with some exclusions.
Applications are submitted online with supporting documents, and close at 5 pm on 27 May 2026.
The funding is being provided by Barclays through Sported’s Community Sport Fund Access Grant programme.
