Further Information: Birmingham Community Mentor Impact Report
Summary:
Sport Birmingham were working with a wide network of community sports organisations and the concept of the Community Sport Mentor (CSM) was developed in a response to the growing number of ‘Satellite Clubs’ and ‘Sportivate’ projects being delivered in the city through the Sport England Club Link Maker/Satellite Club programme.
The CSM focus is on working with the coaches, volunteers and young leaders who were ‘front line deliverers’ on the projects, providing advice and guidance on how to deliver engaging sessions to captivate and retain young people in sport and physical activity.
