Sportsmatch successes

Since its foundation, Sportsmatch has matched over £46 million of funding and sponsored 5784 projects. Its success at leveraging private money into grassroots sport has been exceptional: in a recent survey, 52% of organisations have said that they would not have obtained sponsorship without Sportsmatch.

It has also proved highly effective in persuading sponsors to continue sponsoring sport after their initial investment: last year 63% of Sportsmatch sponsors said that they would definitely continue to sponsor sport at grassroots level as a result of their involvement in the Sportsmatch scheme.
