SportMakers
Funded by Sport England the Sport Makers programme will recruit, train and deploy 40,000 new sports volunteers aged 16 years and over to organise and lead community sporting activities across the country.
Volunteers will have a positive and inspiring introduction to the world of sport volunteering via a series of workshops delivered locally through a training provider and in conjunction with sportessex. These volunteering opportunties will continue after the London 2012 Games, further increasing sports participation and contributing to a Legacy for sport in Essex.
These Sport Makers will organise and support hundreds of thousands of new hours of grassroots sport, creating new opportunities across the country. While doing so, they will bring the Olympic and Paralympic values to life in every community.
Sport Makers will be fully inclusive and target participants including people who have a disability, both males and females and participants from BME groups.
