Main challenges facing community sports groups are re-engaging with young people and finding facilities.

The latest piece of Sported research, based on answers from 437 grassroots sports groups across the UK, has found that far fewer young people are attending their sports groups since the Covid-19 pandemic started. 

  • 58% of groups have less than 80% of their young people attending
  • 30% of groups stating less than 60% of their participants had returned since re-opening

The issue of encouraging young people to return to their groups seems to be one that is disproportionately affecting those from areas of high deprivation. Fewer young people have returned to groups located in areas of high deprivation than elsewhere and reported anxiety levels were higher in those areas.
