British Wrestling secure support for Community Wrestling Clubs

03/08/2021

British Wrestling is pleased to announce that Sport England have approved BWA’s application for the Inclusivity Fund. 

BWA’s CEO and Development Manager have applied and successfully been awarded the Sport England Inclusivity Grant for all our Clubs based in England. 

Craig Anthony, BWA CEO, says “we’re delighted in receiving the inclusivity grant from Sport England, this will allow us to better support our clubs to return to the mat” 

Andreas Michaelas (BWA Development Manager) will be contacting all clubs individually to support their application to receive the support. The key points for clubs to bear in mind to receive the award are:

  • Engaging with participants from Low Social Economic Groups and Ethnic Minorities back into physical activity 
  • Becoming/working towards affiliation to BWA
  • Improving their governance i.e updating constitutions, codes of conduct etc

The regions of England are hosting regional committee meetings, as part of these meetings BWA will be in attendance to discuss the Inclusivity Fund and how to apply for it. If you would like to attend please email clubdevelopment@britishwrestling.org to be invited. Below are the dates for these meetings:

  • Midlands: 5th August @7pm
  • North: 11th August @7pm
  • South: 16th August @7pm

Applications are open here:

Inclusivity Fund  

Advisory: Please complete your form offline in a word document software before submitting as our form will not save your progress

Potential Questions – Inclusivity Fund

We will work with each club individually to create a Development Plan to support their revival post pandemic restrictions. This will range from various areas from governance (such as a constitution), coaching standards and safeguarding. This depends on the clubs circumstances and how much of this is already in place. Below are the basic’s that all our clubs need to adhere too.

                     

If you have any questions please email our Development Manager at clubdevelopment@britishwrestling.org

For additional support to assist your club in reopening please visit our ‘Ready to Wrestle?’ campaign here

Support for all clubs in the UK:

There is also support for all our clubs to access such as the below Poundland Foundation and the Aviva Community Fund below. If you think your club has potential to apply for either of the below, please get in touch with BWA at clubdevelopment@britishwrestling.org
