Governance SERVICES
SOS Sports Consult can work with you to restructure your sports organisation from Club level to Regional, League, National or International level. Restructure can be necessary following governance reviews, requests from external funders and stakeholders, for future proofing the organisation or following challenges or crises within the sport. We provide a bespoke service working with Committees, Boards, Chief Executives, General Secretaries and Managers to help with some of the heavy lifting involved in examining Sports Constitutions, Sporting Structures and drafting the necessary documentation to help Sports Organisations move forward. We understand the membership and political structure unique to Sport and offer practical solution based approaches which work with the Sport to achieve its core objectives.
A governance audit can help your Club, Federation or sports organisation take stock of where it is positioned on the governance pathway. We can provide you with expertise to internally assess and check your governance against codes and good governance practices. This work can be time consuming to conduct internally. Our service will provide you with a governance status check and recommendations on gaps and improvements required.
SOS Sports Consult offers bespoke corporate governance training. We provide training online via webinar or via group or individual sessions. We can also provide you with Board training and Board Induction packs for any individuals joining your organisation for the first time.

We are experienced at examining options as to how your organisation can better encourage gender balance (including Constitutional amendments) on your Boards and Committees. We understand the barriers which can sometimes prevent women stepping forward into roles within sports organisations. We know what your organisation can do to encourage more women to take up more leadership positions. We also offer a Women in Sport Leadership Programme which can be tailored for your organisation.
