Sport England released the ‘Tackling Inequality Fund’ to help support clubs and communities struggling with the after effects of COVID and the Lockdown period. British Wrestling secured £60,000 to support 37 clubs. This has helped support these clubs which has led onto the growth we’re seeing in the sport this year.
BWA Clubs have been working hard to bring in support for wrestling in their local areas. Clubs of note who have worked with BWA and Sport England on their own Crowdfunding projects have brought in over £34,000 between them to grow wrestling in their clubs. https://britishwrestling.org/sport-england-supporting-local-wrestling-club/
