Clubmark

What is Clubmark?

Developed by Sport England, Clubmark is a set of national standards for National Governing Bodies of Sport to adopt and their affiliated clubs to meet. The scheme accredits and recognises clubs that are committed to providing a safe, effective and child- friendly environment for children & young people.

Clubs achieving Clubmark, will receive national and local recognition and will be able to use the logo on all club promotional material.

How can my club achieve clubmark?

Clubmark sets criteria for your club to meet and provide necessary evidence for assessment, in the following categories;

  • Duty of Care and Child Protection 
  • Coaching and Competition
  • Sports Equity and Ethics
  • Club Management
