These grants from the Football Foundation are specifically for the improvement of facilities used for football and other sports. The improvements must be to sustain or increase participation amongst children and adults, regardless of background, age or ability.

Applications could be from football clubs, multi-sport clubs, local authorities, educational establishments, charities or not for profit organisations. These are two of the funds available:

Build the Game offers up to £100,000 for smaller scale facility improvements.

Facilities Scheme offers above £100,000 for bigger building refurbishments.

This could be improvements to drainage, pavilions, clubhouses, changing rooms, artificial pitches, multi-use game areas or floodlights.
