Accredited clubs can access these resources through the ‘Members Area’ of the Clubmark website. This requires you to make a request for an account, from which a user name and password will be sent to and you will automatically be added to the circulation for the newsletter. If, as an accredited club, you have difficulty accessing the new logo in this way, please contact your County Swimming Coordinator.
Sports Equity
Clubmark has produced guidance for clubs to ensure that policies and practices being implemented are those which will promote an inclusive, accessible and child-friendly approach to sport.
This information will assist clubs with the achievement of swim21 Compliance Module, Element 13, which requires the inclusion of actions addressing equity in sport. These actions may be included as an integral part of the club’s annual Improvement Plan or as a separate Equity Plan.
