Sporting Champions

Sporting Champions is a Sport England initiative supporting the Sportivate programme. Sporting Champions brings young adults face to face with world class athletes to motivate and inspire them to participate in sport.   Each Sporting Champion has a wealth of experience within sport, combined with the skills and enthusiasm to inspire and engage young people and young adults in playing sport regularly in their communities.

When planning your Sportivate programme, think about how a Sporting Champion can help support engagement of your participants, keep them coming back and continue participating after the 6 weeks.
