As a non-profit organisation, British Dodgeball is always looking for investment to grow the sport and help us achieve the objectives outlined in our ten year strategy. We are pleased to announce that British Dodgeball is now using Grant Finder to source new funding streams for both ourselves and our members.
The Grant Finder service does carry a cost, but the fact that it lists over 9,000 grants available in the UK today should ensure this is a worthwhile investment. British Dodgeball now has more up-to-date knowledge of what is being funded where, and can use this to better assist our member clubs and organisations to grow in addition to setting up our own participation projects.
Clubs and organisations can apply for funding to cover the costs of equipment, hall hire, marketing, coach education, club and coach membership, competition entry as part of a project looking to:
- Set up a brand new community dodgeball club
- Set up a new dodgeball session run by an existing organisation (e.g. school, community centre, club)
- Set up a new section at an existing club (e.g. women’s or junior session)
- Work with a target demographic at your existing sessions (e.g. those living in deprived areas, inactive people, refugees)
- Develop your workforce (e.g. increasing employability by putting people through coach training)
If your club or organisation has ambitions to develop, and require funding to help make this happen, please first ensure you are hold community club membership or associate club membership (for organisations such as schools or community centres running casual dodgeball sessions) and then get in touch by emailing aden@britishdodgeball.com.
