Sporting Equals exists to actively promote greater involvement by all communities that are disengaged especially the black and minority ethnic population in sport and physical activity. We are the primary driver and funding channel for national and regional programmes in this field.
We work closely with both the providers of sporting opportunities (national governing bodies, local authorities and agencies, sports organisations) and the users of sporting opportunities (community and faith groups, local clubs, charities and individuals). We also have strong links with NHS agencies and other organisations addressing health inequalities in society.
How do we translate the achievement of athletes on the field, into the achievement of leaders off the field? Can we inspire the next generation from our increasingly diverse communities not only to participate in sport, but to aspire to leadership? How can we extend diversity of thought and background into coaching and management?
Leaderboard is an initiative to tackle these questions head on: a fast-track professional development programme that will deliver to sports organizations a more diverse pool of well-prepared and committed individuals, ready for leadership roles.

Building links with untapped markets: SE Talent id Model
The Sporting Equals Talent ID model has been delivered in partnership with Tottenham Hotspur and Queens Park Rangers football clubs. As well as identifying new talent, the programme aims to connect black and minority ethnic (BME) communities with their local professional football club and acts as a catalyst for establishing long-term relationships that can yield significant results for both the BME community and the sports provider involved.
The Talent ID is a transferable approach that can be implemented by any professional sports provider.
