Step Into Sport

Step Into Sport is a national leadership & volunteering project which, encourages young people to become involved in sport in their local communities. It is a joint partnership between Sports Leaders UK, Youth Sport Trust and Sport England, and is funded by the Department for Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS).

Step into Sport provides a structured pathway to attract young people into sports volunteering and to use their experience and talents to enhance sport in their local community. It concentrates on training a new generation of volunteers, aged between 14 and 19, through a network of School Sport Partnerships .

Step into Sport builds on existing structures and programmes such as Sports Leaders UK Level 1 Awards and Youth Sport Trust Leadership Academies, to generate greater volunteer links between schools and clubs.
