Club Matters is Sport England’s support programme for voluntary sector/community sports clubs and groups. It is based around free to access resources on the Club Matters website https://www.sportenglandclubmatters.com/ which guide clubs on topics including safeguarding and welfare, good governance, managing finances, participation development, volunteer recruitment and support etc.

The website is accompanied by face to face and on-line workshops for club volunteers as well as workshops, CPD and networking opportunities for the professional workforce which supports them.

The development of website content and workshop themes is driven by extensive stakeholder and partner engagement, both across Sport England’s internal work areas/teams and with the wider sector. The Club Matters platform is a Totara Learning Management System.

The Club Matters programme is divided into four contracts which will run from December 2021 to March 2025.

two.2.4) Description of the procurement

Stakeholder Engagement, Content Development & Programme Co-ordination: The role of this supplier is to engage with existing and potential stakeholders and partners for Club Matters. This includes National Governing Bodies of Sport, Active Partnerships, Sport For Development organisations, diversity and inclusion organisations. This engagement is to identify issues, challenges and areas for development for voluntary run sports clubs and community organisations. The engagement feeds the development of materials and resources to be shared on the website, through Club Matters workshops and networking sessions.

Workshops and Learning Development; The role of this supplier is to develop and deliver Club Matters workshops and CPD modules for volunteers involved in running community sport and physical activity and the professional workforce who support them. There are eight existing Club Matters workshops and three CPD modules. Delivery is currently around 220 workshops per year with an aspiration to grow this number. Delivery is currently on-line but some element of face to face/local delivery will return. Development of new workshops and CPD modules will be required based on demand from the sector. Access to a high quality tutor workforce is required.

Club Matters Evaluation Partner; we are looking for a supplier to carry out a long term evaluation of the Club Matters programme over the course of the next contract period (3 years from December 2021). The aim is to track the impact of the programme through both quantitative and qualitative assessments. There will be an emphasis on observing and measuring behaviour change of those who use the programme. This will involve volunteers from community sports clubs and groups as well as professional workforce who support them such as Club Development Officers from National Governing Bodies of Sport.
