We offer a variety of governance and EDI services - take a look below for more information.
A board evaluation is a key part of the governance process. A well-conducted evaluation helps the board assess its effectiveness, identify skills required for new appointments, and highlight areas for further development.
Our evaluation starts with a detailed initial consultation with the board chair, CEO and/or the governance lead, and then follows the steps outlined in the graphic.
For any questions about the process, or to book a board evaluation, contact our governance team.
Alongside Accelerate Sport, the Alliance has a number of courses available to members on our e-learning platform. By digitalising elements of our EDI and governance work, we are making learning more accessible for our members - who also receive a discount on courses.
Take a look at the courses that are currently running by clicking here.
The resources from our Inclusivity Hub are available in the 'Resources' section of our website. Here, you’ll find research, resources, toolkits, workshops, and learning events. This space exists to catalyse conversations, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing to enable meaningful change.
The Sport and Recreation Alliance established the Sport and Recreation Governance Network (SRGN) in 2020 to foster peer-to-peer learning among governance professionals across the sector.
We host quarterly virtual meetings to explore current governance topics, share best practice, and hear from guest speakers on emerging issues when appropriate.
The network is exclusive to Sport and Recreation Alliance members and is free to join.
Every year we run a number of training programmes to keep the sector up-to-date on best practice, on topics including good governance, board performance, strategic planning, effective chairing skills and much more.
Take a look at our events page for the latest programmes.
Our team provides in-house training services to a variety of boards across the sector. We work closely with organisations to understand governance needs and tailor bespoke training packages suited to board development.
The Principles of Good Governance are currently being reviewed. An update will be coming soon...
