Accreditation recognises and values the commitment made by
sports clubs to develop high quality, welcoming environments for
young participants. The development of clubs that encourage young
people to take-up sport, improve their talents, possibly play a
leadership role and give them the option to start and maintain
life-long participation in sport is an essential part of supporting
the sporting infrastructure in England.
Accreditation is awarded to clubs that comply with minimum
operating standards in four areas:
- The playing programme
- Duty of care and safeguarding and protecting children and young
people
- Sports equity and ethics
- Club management
