Sporting Champions
The Sporting Champions scheme brings world-class athletes face-to-face with young people to inspire and motivate them to participate in sport.
Athletes will go into the local community and participate in things such as question and answer sessions or sporting demonstrations. There are over 100 athletes available, covering around 40 sports in total.

The scheme is funded by Sport England, so visits are free of charge.
