SPORTS clubs nurturing the talent of the future could be missing out on millions of pounds as investment is funnelled to other parts of the country.

New figures are said to reveal a clear North/South divide when it comes to modernising grassroots sports clubs, while Yorkshire has lagged behind for the past twenty years when it comes to National Lottery sports grants.

While the South East has had £563m handed over from the National Lottery for its clubs since 1995, Yorkshire has been awarded £376m, and falls way behind the North West, London, the East and West Midlands.
