In Sport We Trust

Published by Sported in 2019, this report finds that there are two important factors to consider when analysing the outcomes for membership of sports clubs and groups on young people:

1. Sports group membership is more common in higher SEGs.

2. The better off you are, the more likely you are to be healthy, happy, trusting, and interacting with a more diverse group of people and experiences.

This research considers the various factors that affect a young person’s wellbeing, like income, age, gender and other demographic characteristics to ensure that the findings clearly demonstrate the direct impacts of community sports clubs and groups on young people.
