Almost every sport has a National Governing Body (NGB). Each organisation serves as a non-governmental governing body for a given sport.  The governing body administers that sport at a national level, often crafting rules, promoting the sport to prospective spectators and fans, developing prospective players, and organising major events or championships. They support local clubs and are often responsible for national teams. They also run coach education programmes.

Sport England’s new strategy sets out the key targets for the period 2009 – 13. The strategy identifies national governing bodies of sport (NGBs) as key delivery partners. About 50% of Sport England’s future investment ( between £100m and £120m each year, depending on the quality of the plans and proposals) will be through NGBs.Sport England will ask selected governing bodies to provide their own plans for their sports, to include outcomes matching our strategic goals. Governing bodies will have greater autonomy over the four year public investment entrusted to them; but, alongside this they will also have greater responsibility for effective delivery against Sport England’s key targets. Not all plans are currently available. Those that are, you will be able to locate in this section of the Knowledge Platform. More Information

NGB Funding: As mentioned earlier about 50% of Sport England’s future investment ( between £100m and £120m each year, depending on the quality of the plans and proposals ) will be through NGBs. This document outlines specific NGB funding allocations.
