Sporting Champions

Sporting Champions are a Sport England initiative, which brings world-class athletes face-to-face with young people to inspire and motivate them to participate in sport.

Their main goal is to show young people that sport can and should be fun, and to sow the seeds which start a lifelong enjoyment of physical activity.

There are only 200 general visits available so  they do require a visit code, which you can ask your local County Sports Partnership. More information on how they decide whether to allocate a visit can be found on the the Sporting Champions page of the Promoting Sport toolkit. If you get a code from your local County Sports Partnership, then you can also book the visit via the Sporting Champions page.

If you have any problems or ideas on how to make this process simpler then please email me at john.ainsworth@sportengland.org or leave a comment below.
