Sport Makers:
the lowdown

Sign up by entering your postcode or county above and registering with the people who run sports in your area. 

2. Come to a free, local event

Sport Makers events feature four short sessions in which you’ll get plenty of ideas and inspiration on how to make sport happen. You’ll meet sporting organisations who’ll help you on your journey and you may even meet an Olympian. 

3. Make sport happen

Make sport happen by organising informal games with your friends, helping others improve their skills, supporting a local club or event or setting up regular sessions or mini-leagues. 

4. Record your hours

Use your online profile to record 10 hours of sport making activity and you’re officially a Sport Maker! You’ll even get a certificate signed by one of Britain’s greatest Olympians to prove it.
