Grants

The UKSCA Grants Panel awards grants in the following areas. Due to the uncertainty with Covid-19 and the ongoing government lockdown measures, UKSCA's January 2021 grants cycle has been suspended, we hope to open all grants again for the July 2021 cycle.

Research Grants

Awards of up to £2000 are available and applications are welcome to support research that furthers the understanding of physical preparation for performance-based outcomes and will be of interest to Association members; or consumables to support research projects.

Community and Facility Development Grants

Awards of up to £5000 are available and applications are welcome to support a range of projects; promotion of S&C initiatives (sports performance, physical activity, movement coaching); the development of community and/or outreach projects; the development of S&C in education, youth and amateur sports participation; support for S&C development through the purchase of equipment.

Early Career Development Grants

The UKSCA is keen to support clubs and organisations who are developing the skills of S&C coaches early in their career. Awards of up to £1250 are available to clubs and organisations that are committed to the development of their staff but don’t necessarily have the funds to provide third party education and training.

The 2021 grants have been suspended due to our partnership with the government’s KickStart Scheme. We encourage all those looking to offer placements to consider joining that scheme which will provide funding for 6-month placements. See our home page for more details.
