Social Inclusion and Volunteering in Sports Clubs in Europe

 Drawing on findings from the research project ‘Social Inclusion and Volunteering in Sports Clubs in Europe’ (SIVSCE) conducted between 2015-2017, this report covers the following points:  How government and sports organisations work together in other EU countries and what can be learnt from this?  How English sports clubs compare to those in Europe, and what are their strengths and weaknesses?  What makes clubs successful in promoting volunteering and social inclusion? This is the first time that a comparative study with these aims has been conducted across ten European countries. The results reported here are selected from those of the whole project as the ones most relevant to an English and Welsh audience.
