Wolverhampton Club Registration Scheme

This scheme is aimed at clubs who want to be accredited but may not have the resources to go through Clubmark or a National Governing Body.

What is the Wolverhampton Club Registration Scheme?

It is a process that a club or group with junior sections offering sport or physical activity sessions can go through in order to prove to facilities and members of their clubs that they provide the minimum standards of operation required.

Club Registration is not an alternative to the Clubmark process (provided by Sport England), but a stepping stone for smaller clubs or clubs that haven't, or can't at all, begin the Clubmark process.

What will the process entail?

Clubs will be asked to provide evidence that they have certain standards in place and once they can provide all of the required criteria the club will be registered.

  1. after an initial meeting, an action plan will be devised by the Sport Development Team and this will be forwarded to you to guide you through the process
  2. a member of the team will then follow up with you after a certain number of weeks to check progress and offer assistance with any difficulties

Templates are provided to make a lot of the criteria easy to achieve.

Is there a cost?

No, the service is completely free.

So what is in it for us?

Your club, group or organisation will be registered with the scheme and will be promoted through the recognised clubs list and through any Sport Development networks.

Contact us to arrange a meeting about the scheme. We will give you an information pack and go through the criteria.
