British Wrestling has been working hard to support our community Wrestling Clubs. In partnership with Sport England, British Wrestling has supported 14 clubs around England through the Together Fund.
This has helped these wrestling clubs with regrowing their clubs after the turbulent years of the Pandemic. This fund was a continuation of the Tackling Inequality Fund, this fund existed to reduce the negative impact of coronavirus and help community groups to grow and help more people. The Together Fund money was invested in three key audiences:
- Lower socio-economic groups
- Culturally diverse communities
- Increasing female participation
Our Development Manager, Andreas Michaelas says “The sport has benefitted greatly through the Sport England investment from the Together Fund. It has assisted many clubs in putting on more wrestling programmes around the country. It reached an incredible 500+ participants around England, promoting the sport and getting people active”. Thanks to Sport England for their support.
Below is a summary overview of the impact of the Together Fund on our sport.
